FACTORS INFLUENCING OUR PROPOSAL TO COMBINE PHOTO OPERATION
WITH KDVAULT TECHNICAL OPERATION. APARTMENT UNDER EARLIER
CONSIDERATION WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL PROBABLY SOMETIME
IN MAY, AND WE DO NOT NOW HAVE ANY SUITABLE CANDIDATES TO
TAKE POSSESSION WHEN IT BECOMES AVAILABLE. COMBINING BOTH
OPERATIONS WILL REDUCE NUMBER ASSETS INVOLVED, COSTS, AGENT

TWO ACTIVE SITES IN SUCH CLOSE PROXIMITY CKPOLAR INSTALLATION
“wouLD DOUBLE COVER PROBLEMS AND DOUBLE NUMBER OF CLANDESTINE

5, KDFACTOR-2 will continue to reside in the XDLITERAL building,
as part of his termination agreement, until probably semetime in
December when he will move to new quarters of his own. The KDOLITERAL
building (MEXI-03, Unit 15) is part of the KDVAULT corglex of build-
ings which will be disposed of as reported in other channels. If this
occurs before December, KOFACTOR-2 will move at the time of disposal.

6. KDFACTOR-5 and his family will vacate the KDASSINTHE apart=!
ment ofa 31 August. KDABSINTHE is located in a building owned by
KDABBEY who plang to dispose of his equity in the property in the
near future.

PRODUCTION
7, KDLITERAL: Before being closed down, KDLITERAL, through ‘
KDFACTOR~2, was the source of within-the-compound phetographic cover= . :

age of PCS and TDY MHHARSHers, He provided an average of three rolls
of film a week and provided weekly written reports based on his '
visual observation of the target area.

8, KDABSINTHE: Operated by KDFACTOR-5,; KDABSINTHE produced an
average of six rolls of film a week and was our principal source. for °
information on visitors to the MHHARSH installation, especially |
"WOCORK~type” persons and political exiles, This segment of KDFACTOR
was also our main source of information on MHHARSH license plates

and automobiles.

9. In addition, KDLITERAL an@ KDABSINTHE both provided detailed
"attendance sheets" on all MHHARSH personnel. With the loss of this
combined coverage, it will be difficult to identity personne] assigned
to the MHHARSH installation or to monitor their daily movements in
and out of the compound. The two surveillance points also provided
periodic photo studies of the MHHARSH installation itself with empha-
sis on coverage of the construction changes and modification or addi-
tions made to the communications antenna system.

SECURITY

10, We were gratified to receive the very favorable Headquarters
KDFACTOR security review which was forwarded as HMMW-19,061, 28 June

1972. There is no need for further comment, a a
{
PROBLEMS

ll. Only the developments resorted in other channels.

FINANCES

FY_1972 with the exception of rent payments and utility. costs whic \

are being charged to FY 1973, The breakdown of agent termination

OPERATIONS

1. The KDFACTOR Project continued throughout the past six
months to support two visual and photographic surveillance points
(KOLITERAL and KDABSINTHE) directed against the MHHARSH installation.

ADMINISTRATION

2. Oliver J. MANKUNAS continued to have responsibility for inside
administrative chores and agent handling throughout the period.
Bruce H. FERNALD, who previously handled the assets, is the alternate
case officer and would be available to take over agent meeting respon-
sibilities in the absence of MANKUNAS. Processing of the photo
product is accomplished inside the Station. Agent meetings have now
been cut to a minimum, and the processing of the product and delivery
to the consumer has been speeded up.

PERSONNEL

_ 3. The project includes five salaried assets. KDFACTOR-2
operates the KDLITERAL basehouse and has been employed in this capa-
city since 1957. KDFACTOR-5 operates the KDABSINTHE basehouse with
the assistance of his wife KDFACTOR~6 and his two sons, KDFACTOR-8
and -9. KDFACTOR-5 has also served BKTRUST in this capacity since

1957.

PRODUCTION

4. KDLITERAL: During this reporting pericd, KDLITERAL, through
KDFACTOR-2, continued to be the source of within-the-compound photo-

film and provided weekly written reports based on his daily visual
observation of the target area.

5. KDABSINTHE: Crerated by KDFACTOR-5, KDABSINTHE produced

100 rolls of film and cchtinued to be the principal source for infor-
mation on visitors to the MHHARSH installation, with special atten-

“tion given to visits of "NOCORK-type" persons and political exiles.
weThis segment of KDFACTOS also continued to be the main source of
“information on MHHARSH license plates and automobiles.

6. KDLITERAL and XDABSINTHE both continue to provide detailed
“attendance sheets" on all MIHARSH personnel. Without this combined
coverage; it would be difficult to identify personnel assigned to
the MHHARSH installation or to monitor their daily movements and

_activities. In addition, the two surveillance points provide periodic
_ photo studies of the MEHARSH installation itself with emphasis on
*@overage of ary cons

tructionchanges and any modification or additions
made to the communications antenna system. Both sites are also
available to service special support requests as required. During
the period, KDLITERAL performed a number of special photo surveys and
a three-week frequency sweep requested by WOACRE.

SECURITY REVIEW

7. ‘There were no known problems. of security relating to the
project. In response to Reference B. request, we have reviewed all
phases of the operation and believe that project security is sound.
The project assets have all been with us for many years and have
established themselves as respectable long-time residents of the
area. All five assets, four in one family and one in another, are
extremely security conscious and have all been SGSWIRLed. The assets
derive a substantial portion of their liv
employment and would thus lese a great deal if security factors ever
necessitated a termination of their work for us. As an additional
safeguard, the KDLITERAL and KDABSINTHE operations are compartmented
from each other, and there has never been any indication that either
segment of KDFACTOR knows of the other's existence.

8. The only termination of a project asset in recent years was
KDFACTOR-1, who formerly processed the photo product from both
surveillance points. KDFACTOR-1 was terminated amicably in March
1971. We still maintain periodic contact with him; and his brother,
KDADAGE-14, continues to be one of our more valued MHHARSH access
agents. KDFACTOR-l is a reputable physician with a wide circle of
friends, and on a number-of recent occasions he has been very helpful
when we have taxed his expertise in his field or requested background
information on people in the medical profession. Although KDFACTOR=-1
processed the photo product, he was not knowledgeable of the exact
surveillance point locations. Delivery and pickup of the finished
product was always accoezplished by an outside case officer.

9. Contact is maintained with only two of the five assets.
KDFACTOR-2 and -5, both of whom are responsible for the operation of
their respective basehouses. Both KDFACTGR-2 and -5 are met weekly
to obtain the XDLITERAL and KDABSINTHE product for timely processing
and analysis by the Station. Meetings with KDFACTOR-2 are car pick-
ups at periodically changed locations in the suburbs. Meetings with
KDFACTOR-5 consist of car meetings early in the morning along his
route of travel to his overt job. These meetings last only long

enough to pick up the pro

rents, utility bills, etc. Emergency contact plans are on file at
the Station and have been forwarded to Headquarters On both KOFACTOR=-

“2 and -5. KDFACTOR-6, -8, and ~9 are members of KDFACTOR-5*°s imme-

diate family and could be contacted through him using his emergency
plan.

10. We have taken action recently to guard against the contin-
gency that one of the present sites might be blown, and alternate

means might be required to continue the KDFACTOR coverage... In
February 1972 an apartment became available in the same: building
complex which houses the KDABSINTHE installation. Through the
cooperation of KDABBEY-1, we were able quictly to rent the apart-
ment and install elements of the KDCALVERT team as residents. This

| location affords as good, if not better, vantage point for continu-
ing photo coverage in the event the present KDABSINTHE location

\ becomes untenable. We are also exploring alternate locations for
KDLITERAL to solve the problem we face with this element of KDFACTOR

coverage (sce below).

| PROBLEMS

\ ll. The only known problem connected with the project is a
‘product of mother nature which 18 threatening the effectiveness of
KDLITERAL coverage. Approximately two years ago MHHARSH personnel
planted eight small trees along the edge of the terrace leading to
the garden. These trees have flourished and now have grown to the
point where KDFACTOR-2, the KDLITERAL operator, estimates he only

has a year more of effective operational capability. We are studying
ways of solving this problem and will forward a separate dispatch

to Headquarters on the topic in the near future. -

REFER ENCE : HMMA-40,227, 8 March 1971 (Previous Ops Report)

OPERATIONS:

1, The KDFACTOR Project continued throughout the past six
months to support two visual and photographic surveillance points
(KDLITERAL and ADABSINTHE) directed against the MHHARSH installation.

2. Howard T. BAGAUS handled the administration of the project
until early April 1971 when project responsibility reverted from the
Ops Support Section back to the REDTOP Section. At that time Timothy
H. ARCHSCLD assumed the inside administrative chores, and agent
meotings were turned over to the outside case officer Bruce H.
FERNALD who had previously handled the assets. When ARCHBOLD de-

bilities. MANKUNAS also took over agent meetings when FERNALD left
on home leave on 25 June and will continue to handle the project

assets in the future,

3, Processing of the photo product is now accomplished inside
the Station by Phemia B, CHAUVEAU, KDFACTOR-1, who formerly did all
the processing in an outside safehouse/darkroom, was terminated
amicably in early March 1971, and at that time the responsibility
was turned over to CHAUVEAU, The new arrangement has proven to be
more than satisfactory, Agent meetings have now been cut to a
minimum, and the processing of the product and delivéry to the con-
Sumer has been speeded up considerably,

4, The project includes five salaried assets, KDFACTOR-2
operates the KDLITERAL base house and has been employed in this
capacity since 1957, KDFACTOR-5 operates the KDABSINTHE base house

PRODUCTION '

5, KDLITERAL: During this reporting period, KDLITERAL,
through KDFACTOR-2, continued to be the. source of within-the-compound
photographic coverage of PCS and TDY MHHARSHers, He produced 76
rolls of film and provided weekly written reports based on his daily

visual observation: of the target aroa.

the MHHARSH installation or to monitor their daily movements and

activities.

SECURITY

8.. There were no known problems of security relating to the
The termination of KDFACTOR=-1 should pose no security
problem: Contact was broken amicably, and it is highly probable
that he would be more than willing to help out again if his services
are needed, Of the remaining assets, all five have been SGSWIRLED
in the past. They derive a substantial portion of their livelihood
from their JKLANCE employment and would thus lose a great deal if

us. AS an additional safeguard, the KDLITERAL and KDABSINTHE opera-
tions are compartmented from each other, and there has never been
any indication that either segment of KDFACTOR knows of the other's

existence,

9, Contact is maintained with only two of the five assets,
KDFACTOR-2 and -5, both of whom are responsible for the operatioa
of their respective base houses, Both KDFACTOR-2 and -5 are met
weekly to obtain the KDLITERAL and KDABSINTHS product for timely
processing and analysis by the Station, Meetings with KDFACTOR~ 2
are car pickups at periodically changed locations in the suburbs,
Meetings with KDFACTOR-5 consist of car meetings early in the

last only long enough to pick up the product, provide new supplies,

GENERAL

1. The-KDFACTOR Project continued throughout the period to
support two visual and photographic surveillance points (KDLITERAL
and KDABSINTH) directed against the MWHHARSH installation and to
support the related photo processing of the product.. - -

2. The Station is presently taking steps to terminate
KDFACTOR-1 the photo processor and move this phase of the operation

into the Station.

3. Primary responsibility for the operational and administra-
tive handling of Project KDFACTOR was transferred on 1 December 1970
to the Operational Support Section, and handling of the KDFACTOR
personnel was turned over to Howard T. BAGAUS on 2 December 1970.

MEETING ARRANGEMENTS

. 4. KDFACTOR-5: This agent is met by BAGAUS at 0800 each
Tuesday morning at one of four different sites near the Anillo
Periferico in Polanco, some three miles from the Station. The modus
operandi used with this agent is basically the same as previously
used by Bruce H. FERNALD. All meetings are held in the case efficer
car, and after the meetings, KDFACTOR-5 resumes his trip to work.

5. KDFACTOR-2: He is mot at 1630 every Tucsday by BAGAUS. in
several new widely spaced sites. Modus operandi is basically the
same as that described in the previcus operational report for
FERNALD, and after the meeting, KDFACTOR-2 proceeds to his cover

job.

6, KDFACTOR-1: After
via round-a~bout route to a locat
KDFACTOR-1 medical office, where he
office (taking counter-surveillanco precautions on tho way).
As FERNALD previously, uses the notional cover of either a
pharmaceutical“salesman for “Laboratorios del Norte’t or that of a
patient while waiting in tne outer office. The waiting period
normally depends upon whether KDFACTOR-1 is in at the time, or
-.. whether he is in the middle of an operation at the hospital..
‘Le (Waiting periods vary from immediate admittance to the KDFACTOR=1
- office to several hours)... The average period is about twenty
minutes. A decision was reached in the Station to terminate this
asset and to transfer this phase of the operation to the Station
itself, in the interest of speed, security, and cost. This
-termination is planned for early March 1971, at which time, the

processing will be done in the station.

SECURITY . |
7. There have been no know! security problems during this
reporting period. - H

PRODUCTION -
8. KDLITERAL: During this! reporting period, KDLITERAL

through KDFACTOR-2 has again been the principal source of within-the-

compound photographic coverage ef PCS and TDY MHHARSHERS producing

129 rolls of film. During the period covered, a great change of PCS

personnel at the MHHARSH instal}.ation took place, and KDLITERAL

played a leading role in assisting the Station in identifying the

new members of the installation, through not only photographic
coverage, but through detailed visual reporting also. In addition
to reporting on the netivities of the different individuals in the

target installation, KDLITERAL Has also reported on significant
yound such a recent change in the

construction changes in the comy

antenna configurations on the root of the main building. During

this period, KDLITERAL has been specifically targetted against

AEJEFE, on whom which a special report has been submitted.

g through KDFACTOR-5, KDABS NTH

produced [58 rolis of film. It provided the Station with information

on visitors to the MHHARSH instgilation, giving special attention

to visits of "WOCORK-type" perscn®: KDABSINTH continues to fulfill

requirements from the various sections of the Station who have

requested fixed surveillance of political exiles, otc., to determine

if these individuals are in contnet with the MHHARSH installation.

provided reports on the activits&S and associates of IDENTITY who
was on TDY in Mexico from 15 October through 4 November 1970.

During this period both units were also involved in surveilling

the movements of an AEKICK tech#ician, (201-838166) who periodically

The basehouse (MEXI-132)- 1s located near the front of
the MHHARSII installation and it is owned by LIMOUSINE.
. (Contrary to Reference B Project Renewal, LIMOUSINE
is the actual, not “ostensible", owner of this
property. Please seo HMse83814, 8 January 1968, for
full details of the various property transfers,
destruction and re-construction of buildings and
re+locations of operations connected with the Project,
past and -present.). ‘

¢.. Photo processing is accomplished by LIEMPTY-4
except in special cases when prints are required
-quickly and- are précessed within the Station. LIENPTY-4
has a darkroom located in the rear of his medical
office and he handles the work after normal office

hours. with patients.

. - 2. Outside case officer Bruce H. FERNALD handles the three
key agents of the Project (LIEMPTY-9, -13, and -:4). He meets
with each once a Week’ for passing requirements, paying agent

and sub-agent salaries, rents and other experses, providing
.Supplies, and retricving the product. Inside case officer
Timothy M. ARCIBOLD handles the internal administration of the
Project and is the Station contact with FERNALD,

MEETING ARRANGEMENTS

3. LIEMPTY-13: He is met by FERNALD i1 the early hours
_of Tuesday mornings at about 0730 in Polanco, an area far from
the basehouse., LIEMPTY-13 parks his car and walks through a
central park on Calle Horacio where he is intercepted within
a ten-block distance by FERNALD, driving his car. During a
drive together, instructions and product are passed hetween them
and, once a month, LIEMPTY-13 is paid his salary and the
salaries for LIEMPTY-14, -26 and -27, After drop-off LIEMPTY-13
returns to his car and proceeds to his full-time job, thus
avoiding any direct route back to the basehcuse operation,

4.  LIEMPTY-9: After completing his sirveillance workday
from 0800 to 1500 hours, he completes his written reports and
drives to meet FERNALD at around 1630 hours, also on Tuesdays.
The location of car mectings varies but remzins within a quiet,
fairly secluded section, After leaving FERMALD, LIEMPTY-9
proceeds to his cover job at a brother's automobile dealership
for the remainder of his day, again avoiding any direct route
from FERNALD back to the basehouse, : :

5. LIEMPTY-4: After receiving the un?rocessed take from
LIEMPTY-~9 and -13, FERNALD prepares instructions, as suggested
by log entries that accompany the take, and goes to, LIEMPTY- 4's
medical office waiting room in the late afternoon. For these
meetings, FERNALD appears to be a pharmaceutical salesman or
a patiént and gets to see LIEMPTY~4 only after 211 other visitors
have departed. t each meeting, FERNALD delivers films from
both LICALLA and LILYRIC for processing anc retrieves the
processed take that, he had left the week before, While this
arrangement means that some of the product (those photos taken
soon after meeting with LIEMPTY-9 and -13) are almost two weeks
old when received at the Station, we have ast fotind this to be
- unacceptable, When speed is of the essence in special
circumstances, the Station WOACRE technician can handle the
processing,

7. During the ‘period of this report, LIEMPTY-4 processed
approximately 142 rolls of 36-exposure film. Roughly one-third
comes from. LICALLA and the remainder from LILYRIC which

‘commands the better view and more trafficked approach. In

8, _ LEEMPTY-9 (LICALLA), in addition to his picture-taking

= (perched for seven ‘hours daily atop a ladder arrangement to see
-above the heightenéd garden wa11), regularly provides a detailed
“attendance sheet" and.a monthly summary of MHHARSH personnel
activities. The photos - are an indispensible tool in the day-

Outside case officer Bruce H, FKRNALD handles all agents, normally
on & once per Week basis, and passes the take tc his Station
contact. Cperational funds are passed to FERNALI by his Station
contact, and FERNALD pays all agent Salaries, reats, and other
expenses, The elimination of GERENDE has resulted in some loss
of efficiency, since base heuse personnel cannot regularly be met
as frequently as in tha past, This can mean a delay of up tuo two
weeks in veceipt by the Station of photos. However, LILYRIC and
LICALLA personnel have standing requirements to report by telephone
visits of Americans, and they are also alerted in advance whenever
pessible to forthcoming TDYs of MHHARSH visitors, so that arrangements
can be made for special meetings and speedy precessing of photos.
Normally, all photos are developed an€é printed by LIEMPTY-4,

When Speed is of the essenco, however, negatives are seat into

the Station for processing by the WOACRE technician, Thus, while
GERENDi's loss is a serious one in certain respects (he was, on

the local scene, talented, knowledgeable, and experienced), LILMPTY

production hes not suffered greatly.

2, As tar as the security problem is coacerned, the generous
termination settlement avarded to GLRENDE has probably removed
whatever small temptation there may have been on his part to be
indiscreet about his former nsseciztion, Although GERENDE has
certain character weaknesses which’ emérged as a lack of dedication
and a feeling that he could get by with as Littke work as possible,
the Station bélieves that ho is basically not.an irresponsible
person, and that he realizes not only that he has an ebligation to
respect security, but that he also realizes that he has been treated
fairly and with great patience. He has offored his services for
the future, and he was told that we appreciated the offer and did
fot want to lose complete touch with him, but for now he should

devote himself to getting a good job.

3. As for GERENDE's wife, LIEMPTY-19, she also appeared to
be grateful for the termtnation bonus which she had been granted
(and which she was told had not been carved out oi what was due
GERFNDE). On the other hand, she has less reason to be loyal to
JKLANCE, and her mental stability if Somewhat opea to question,
Therefore, she poses'a greater threat to LIEMPTY security than
dues GERENDE, At the same time, she knows much less about Station
operations and personnel than does GERENDE. Furthermore, it is
not likely that she would (a la Mrs. LIROCKET-1) go directly to
the MHHARSHers with her information. What she might do is reveal
to ter lawyer ihat GERENDE liad worked for LNPURE and therefore had
incone to which she might feel that shé is entitled. Since
GERENDE is no longer employed and therefore no longer has regular
‘income (except for monthly payments of the termination bonus,
which she has agreed in writing not to claim), this threat has
also been lessened, Theoretically, however, she could expose
LIEMPTY and LIFEAT techniques (since she has been a LIFsAT transcriber),
put she could not, as far as we knew, expose any currently eaployed
agents, with the exception of LIEMPTY-~4, who is murried to GERENDE'S
sister. (None of the above assessment ur the possible security
threat posed by LIEMPTY-19 is changed by her B July visit to

JKLANCE Headquarters.)

4. There have been no changes in the functioning or activities
of the LICALLA base bouse, In addition to the routine photos,
"attendance reports," and special concentration on the activities
of various individuals (most recently AETURNK2EY) , LIEMPTY~9
responded to a number of spot requests, For instance, it was

The logs showed that ASTURNKEY might have made the first meeting,
but would certainly have been late for it. For the alleged second
meeting, however, the log showed that AETURNKEY was in the MHHARSHK
Embassy for the entire period of the wevting (subject of MsxIco CITY
3389 latdr amended his story to say that AETURNKEY had not rade
the second meeting). LILYRIC personnel] were quick to spot the
subject of MEXICO CITY 3542, 25 June 1970, making visits to the
MHHARSH Embassy, and reported these visits by phone even before
the Station had learned, from LIENVOY, of this person's telephone
call, Several other visitors of apparent WOLADY nationality were
aJso routinely reported to local LNcRGU, along vith a request for
license plate reselution if a WOLADY license plate is spotted,
Late in June, LILYRIC was alerted to report the possible visit of
a person who had made a phone call to 201-087316, offering the
latter Bome “interesting iaformation,"”. LILYRIC spotted and -
photographed a person who may be idertical with the ealler, and

attempts are now under way to resolve this.

6, LIEMPTY-4 continues to handle all photo developing and

and in --
spite, of his leg imjury, from which he jis now recovered, he did
not miss any deadlines. The fact that GeRtNDE has been terminated
is not expected to affect his relatiorship with the Station, even
though he 1s married to one of GERUNDS's sisters, FrENALD has
established good rapport with hin, aud be has stated that GeRENDE'S
preblems are not -his and will have no effect on his association,

7. The above recital-of LILYRIC and LICALLA sctivities would
seem to indicate a heavy CI emphasis. Actually, this is net the
case, While CI is an important by-product, net only for ourselvas
but also in support ef walk-in operations run by other agencies,
the day-in day-out bread and butter photo and fixed surveillance
information is of great importance to our positive operations. The
data base which has been built un end maintained by LISWTY

SUMMARY

1. The LIEMPTY Project has thus far survived the absence fron
duty of its principal agent, Raymond H, ‘GERENDE, as well as the
threat to the security of the Project represented by GERENDE's
marital problems, Bruce H, FERNALD has been handling all Project
personnel since early December 1969, when GERENDE was deactivated
and placed on half-pay. No problems have resulted from this, other
than a delay in the receipt of photos (FERNALD is unable to meet
LIEMPTY personnel as frequently as GERENDE was). The security

- threat will remain as long as GERENDE's estranged wife has it
within her power to’expose GERENDE's RVROCK connection and the type
of work he was engaged in, She has continually promised not to do
this, and thus far she has kept her word,

2. The LIEMPTY product continues to be a valuable one for the
Station, It continues to play an important CI role (particularly
for LNEPGO and LNREAD) but its gredtest value, as far as the Station
is concerned, is in the positive field, Two recent examples
underline this: The early .(and thus; far only) debriefing of
AEMIDRIFF was accomplished almost exclusively by showing her photos
of all MHHARSH Embassy personnel and getting from her a character
sketch on each individual. These photos were all obtained by
LILYRIC and LICALLA. Secondly, LIEMPTY observations (as opposed to

photos) played an important role in our total coverage of AESEASICK
during tho recent opérational activity undertaken against AESEASICK.
In short, LIEMPTY remains a highly effective and highly useful
‘Support asset, whose product’ is obtained in order to be used

operationally, not simply collected for the files,

. tis wife in order to -insuré that she. would not feel forced to take

GERENDE — . : .

3. The GERENDE problem is unquestionably a serious one. We
are forwarding under separate cover copies of several memoranda
Prepared by. GERENDE, One outlines the history of his marital .
problems, another describes the current legal Situation, and a .
‘third outlines proposals for a settlement. There is no hope of
reconciliation. The Station’s position with GERENDE from the
start has been that he must agree to an amicable settlement with

steps which would jeopardizé the security of Station operations,

‘For this ‘reason, the Station insisted from the beginning that any —

financial settlement with his wife would have to take into account
the fact that he was receiving a certain salary from RVROCK, and
that he could not iairly keep this salary out of the settlement on
the grounds that his wife could make no legal claim to that

salary. GERENDE's wife-was made aware of our position on this, and
she was grateful, even though stie realized that this arrangement

was strictly informal, The Station felt that GERENDE could not be
allowed to use his RVROCK salary AS a weapon in the dispute with his
wife, because if he did, she could hardly be expected to refrain
from exposing his connect ions, Indeed, events have shown that
GERENDE's wife is a vindictive woman, and if it had not been clear
to her that she, as well as GERENDE, would lose money if he loses
his job, she might have blown the whistle long ago, GERENDE, for
his part, would have preferred to keep his RVROCK salary entirely
out of the picture. Eventually, however, he agreed that the Station
position was fair, and he said he would conform.

4, The attached memoranda from GERENDE are, in the Station's
opinion, basically fair accounts. In the beginning, the Station
was inclined to give GERENDE's wife (LILMPTY-19) tke benefit of the
doubt, largely because her description of GERENDE'S character
weaknesses came -as no surprise (particularly his tendeacy to 7
procrastinate, even when his marriage was at stake). Early in the
conflict, LIEMPTY-19 contacted RIZZUTO and asked point blank what
she could tell her lawyer about GERENDE's salary. She was told
she could not.mention the RVROCK portion undér any circumstances,
and that if she told anyone-that GERENDE had any connection with
LNPURE, the connection would be denied and GERENDE would be
terminated. She appeared to accept this gracefully, even though it

: meant she would have to scale her support demands down to the

level of GERENDE's overt income (GERENDE's monthly salary from
RVROCK was over 7,000 pesos; he earned an additional 4 to 5,000 pesos ,
teaching English, and he has since rented their house, for which
he is receiving slightly less than 7,000 pesos monthly). .
Subsequently, LIEMPTY-19 was told thet the Station would see to it
that as long as GERENDE continued to receive an RVROCK salary, he
would give her the same proportion of this salary that the courts
determined should be paid from his overt income, This, of course

was strictly an informal arrangement, one which would stop the
minute GERENDE stopped receiving a salary. Later, as LIEMPTY-19's
oSition hardened an er vindictiveness began to rule her actions,

LIEMPTY-19 was reminded by the Station that the longer it took for
an amicable solution to be reached, the greater was the chance

cithat GERENDE would lose his job, If she persisted in having him
‘arrested (which she succeeded in doing twice), his job would be

jeopardized, While she continued to repeat sweetly that she had no
intention of- causing his termination, and had never breathed a

word to’a soul about his RVROCK affiliation, her attitude was in
fact jeopardizing his job and if he lost his job, she and the ,
children, as well as GERENDE, would lose income, Wer attitude is

doubly disappointing in view of the fact that as she became more and
more unreasonable, GERENDE was moving in the othor direction,

5, Tho outcome can still not be predicted. As can be seen
from GERENDE's memos, the two sides are still far apart on a number
of points, including specifically-money. LIEMPTY-19 insists on

| 10,000 pesos per month, . GERENDE is willing to pay 5,000, GERENDE
is * current ly on half-pay, which means that his total’ (all source)
monthly income is around 14,000 pesos, From this, he would not only
-have. to pay the amount which is finally agreed upon, he must also
contitiue payments of 2500 pesos-per month to LIEMPTY-19's father

.. (paying off a loan obtained.to build ‘their house). The complicating
“factor is. the uncertainly of GERENDE's future with RVROCK., The
Station has maintained for some time that it is impossible to
continue to pay. ERENDE his full salary solely torun the LICALLA
and .LILYRIC basehouses, Now that FERNALD has absorbed this duty

_ with only small incoavenicnce.and some loss of timeliness, it makes
even léss sense to put GERENDE to work only to do this. GERENDE
has long been aware of the Station's thinking in this regard, and.
prior to the current pergonal crisis he had been told that he
would have to work harder at a greater variety of tasks in order
to retain hie position. As Headquarters is aware, he had been
given additional tasks, and, as reported in reference, he had begun
to respond very well, There has never been any question of GERENDE's
ability. As we have previously stated, he is personablo, intelligent,
bilingual and binational, and has had good training and experienca
in certain fields, On the other hand, there has long been doubt
about his seriousness of purpose, his’ initiative, and his ambition.
The "reversal of roles" which he describes in one of the attached - -
memos, which took placo when he was confined to his home as an .
LP keeper, did more than cause domestic problems -- it apparently
deprived him of the discipline of a daily job. His well-deserved
reputation for being lazy was earned years ago,

6, The. question which must be answered is whether or
not to terminate GERENDE. He can be useful to the Station, but
the Station has learned to get along without him, What are the
security hazards involved? The general range of his knowledge is
described in paragraph 5 of reference, If all of this were blown,
the loss to the Station, particularly in terms of support operations
against the MHHARSH target, would be considerable, The Station
does not believe that GERENDE would deliberately expose any of this,
but it is impossible to predict what LIEMPTY~19 might do, particularly
since she would feel that she had nothing to lose, having already
lost a possible source of income through the termination, GERENDE's
termination’ bonus would probably be in the neighborhood of ten
thousand dollars, Presumably LIEMPTY-19 is aware of the fact that
he would get such a bonus, although the Station has never discussed
this with her and the possible division of such a bonus between the

two of them has never been mentioned,

LICALLA

7. The LICALLA basehouse continues to function without changes,
except for the fact that Bruce H. FERNALD has been meeting LIEMPTY-9
since 9 December 1969, Brief meetings with LIEMPTY-9 are held once
a week at pre-arranged times and places (weil away from the MHHARSH
area). Occasionally special meetings are called, by phone, by
FERNALD, if special coverage is desired (as in the AESEASICK case,
for example). There have been no problems, operational or personal,
involving ‘the basehaise or LIEMPTY-9 during the reporting period,
LIEMPTY-9 provided 1,728 photographs during the reporting period,
and in addition to his regular reporting on observed activities of
MHHARSH personnel, he provided special coverage as requested. This
"special coverage" consists of his observations of a selected
individual -~ who does he spend his time with, how is he behaving,
when was he present (or absent), etc, LIEMPTY~9 spends over 40

‘hours a week just watching (and photographing) MHRARSH personnel,
and ever the years he has gottento know them, and their babits,

is asked to put a certain individual under close scrutiny, his

tentative AEKICK or AEGRIP identifications, TDYers can often be
‘linked up with their internal escort officers. In the case of
Specific targets, LICALLA- spectal coverage can sometimes give clues
to- =personal relationships which can be exploited, During. the reporti
. peF ted we had special coverage on AESKASICK (to determine any :
‘changes in pattern following the ABMIDRIFF defection and following |
the operation. against him -- amfin both cases LICALLA did report *
Jee some, change in pattern); 202-305870 (for much the same reason, ;
“although here the evidence was not as clear); AEPOLYP (to gather .
information on his patterns and his associatious); ABTAKEOFF \
- (for the same reason); and 201=838166 (to find out if he did, ‘
in fact work in the "restricted area" and who his associates were,

& requirement which was quickly satisfied). Also, LICALLA has been
asked to report on the arrival and activities of TDYers such as .
the AEKICK security inspectors (he is not, of course, told that i
"security iaspectors" are expected -- he is told of the expected ‘
arrival of visitors, and he can spot a visitor or newcomer immediately),

the possible arrival of 201-314616 and, currently, to attempt to {

-identify, at least by association, the person who went out to meet

an LNREAD agent (subject of MEXICO CITY 2741, 17 March 1970). The

value of LICALLA to the RiDTOP program in Mexico City can scarcely
be overstated,

LILYRIC

8. There have been no changes during the reporting period of
the operation of the LILYRIC basehouse activity, except that Bruce
H. FERNALD took over the handling of the LILYRIC personnel from
GERENDE in early December, FERNAID normally meets only LIEMPTY-13,
at pro-arranged sites and times (also well away from the MHHARSH
area), once a week for pick-up of the films and reports. He occa}
sionally meets LIEMPTY=~14 (LIEMPTY-13's wife) when LIEMPTY-13 may
be out of town. The LILYRIC coverage is a fanily enterprise
with the work equally divided among LIEMPTY-15, 4,6, and 27,
who split up the hours of.duty so that there is uninterrupted

. coverage Mondays through Fridays from 0800 to 1800 hours, and
0800 to 1500 hours Saturdays, (Extra-hour or week-end coverage may
be requested as necessary, and the LILYRIC personnel responded to
the Station request for such extra coverage during the AEMIDRIFF
and AESEASICK cases.) The family has continued to provide reports
during the reporting period on all activity centered on the front
entrance of the MHHARSH Embassy, Such coverage included, as in the
past, daily logs on the comings and goings of MHHARSH officials,
up-te-date’ recording of MHIIARSH license aounbers, special activities
and visitors (particularly Americans, of whom five were spotted and
reported on during the reporting period), and some 3,500 photographs,
AS an example of the value of LILYRIC coverage, within one week of
the change of license plates at the MHHARSH Embassy (a biannual change
affecting all of Mexico, with new numbers bearing no relation to
the old), LILYRIC had provided a complete list of the new numbers
(along with the cars to which the plates are assigned). Among
other things, this enabled tho Station to identify AESEASICK's
companions during his jast few days:in Mexico. Without LILYRIGC
identificationof the new license plates would have taken months and
would have handicapped our operations, LILYRIC has also provided
special coverage.of the visit of a Latia Aserican CP representative,
and is currently watching for the two AZKICK security technicians,
201-314616, and the man who went to meet the LNREAD agent. Also,
LILYRIC has reported on visits of Mexican students and the identity
of the MHHARSH representatives who deal with then or hand out
literature to them. In short, LILYRIC's services, even though the

9, LIENPTY-~4, ha6é continucd to develop and to print oll of .
the LICALLA and LILYRIC photographs. He has been met regularly by
Bruce H, FERNALD (taking over for GERiNDE) since 26 Novomber 1969,
phe first few meetings at that time (late November and early
December) were arranged by FERNALD by telephono to LIEMPTY-4 and
_ primarily concerned LIEMPTY-4's reports on GERENDE's family problems
-ahd related security arrangements, Since mid-December, LIEMPTY-4 °

resumed a regular. schedule (usually weekly) of meetings at
pre-arranged. sites and times. LIEMPTY-4 has been given a special
extension in the Station to which he may call as "Dr. Carlos" to
.Jeave a message ‘for "Victor": .(FERNALD),. FERNALD can change meeting
plans by directly calling LIEMPTY-4, The only personal problem
directly involving LIEMPTY-4 was surgery on his knee which required
his wearing a full cast on his leg for over six weeks. During

this’ period. when LIEMPTY-4 has been unable to drive, FERNALD has
been meeting LIEMPTY-4, for the exchange of LICALLA/LILYRIC films
and prints, at LIEMPTY~-4's office, under a suitable pretext and with
appropriate security precautions, LIEMPTY-4's services are
invaluable since the Station could not, on a continuing basis,
process the LIEMPTY material in its own photo lab,

SECURITY

10. Other than the security problems inherent in GERENDE's
personal problems, there have been no security problems during the

reporting period,

FUTURE PLANS

11, As for GERENDE, the Station has reached the conclusion
that he must be terminated, ‘This is not an easy decision to make,
nor will it be easy to confront GERENDE with this decision, He
has, after all, devoted 15 years of his life to RVROCK. However,
as noted above, in spite of his talents the Station has been able
to get along without his services. Furthermore, the constant
security risk posed by his wife is, frankly, an unacceptable risk.
To try to molify her by promising ‘her a portion of his salsry is
probably unworkable in realistic terms, particularly since her
attitude has progressively hardened. The Station, therefore,
intends to terminate GERENDE prior to the end of FY 1970, GERENDL'S
contract calls for a termination bonus of one month's salary: per
full year, This would come to $8,750 (USD), Fox various reasons,
including the need to preserve the security of the operation by
ensuring that the termination 1s amicable, it will probably be
necessary, as stated in paragraph 6, to give GERENDE about $10,000
(USD), Furthermore, it will be necessary to inform LIEMPTY=-19 of
the termination, and, to keep her from revealing what she knows,
she will undoubtedly have to be given some money herself. The
Station does not believe that it would beequitable or sound from
a security point of view to use the money which GERENDE himself has
earned for this purpose. Therefore, while the figure will remain
negotiable, the Station believes that the sum of $2,500 (USD)
would be a reasonable amount, Total obligations for FY 1970 in
the LIEMPLTY Project are currently estimated at slightiv leas than
$33,000 (USD). The Project has been approved in the amount of
$38,970 (USD) leaving unobligated approximately $6,000 (USD). It
is therefore requested that the LIEMPTY Project be amended for
FY 1970 to provide an additional $8,000 (USD) to be used in the
GERENDE termination. Funds will be available at the Station,

project’ renewal for FY 1971, as far as
LICALLA, LILYRIC, and LIEMPTY-4 are concerned, 00 changes in
procedure aré planned. The product is useful, it is as timoly as
present: circumstances permit, and the personnel involved are doing’
their jobs well, The only change foreseen is an increase in

salary for somo, if not all, of these agents. The most recent

salary increases took effect in May 1968, LIEMPTY-4 has not had

an increase since January 1967, and LIEMPTY-13 since January 1964,
Jticrease in cost of living alone would be sufficient justification ;
to raise salaries, but in the case of these agents their consistently
excellent work deserves €o be rewarded, These salary increases

will probably range between 10 and 20 percent.

“7 43, As for other project expenses, LIEMPTY-10 and LIEMPTY-11
wikl no Ionger be funded: under LIEMPTY, but have been transferred
‘te LIEMBRACE effective 1 July 1970, Real estate expenses should
remain fairly constant, with perhaps a slight allowance for
inflation, .The rent on GERENDE's dark room (MEXI 137) will no
longer be paid’ with his termination. MV-2823 will be sold or
otherwise disposed of and should not be included in the project
for FY 1971, Equipment and operational expenses should remain

constant,

SUBJECT: GERENDE Background and Status Report
of Present Yarital Confilet

1, While this. fs not intended to be a full exposition of my -
personal and private life over vecent years, I would like to make
known Some of the facture that have, from my point of view, led

up to the present sitration,

2, I realize that the interests of the organization and the
interest of the tndividuals who may have opportunity to come in .
contact with my case dictate as Little personal involvement as .
possible in the lives of agents. Indeed, the requirements of
security, compartrentation and efficiency prescribe the modue
operandi and, to a great extent the ‘nodus vivendi, of agency
personnel not only in the sense of earning a living but also in
manner of living. Ideally, the less said about an agent's private
life, the better, but, as the years ge by, changes may occur which
go unreported or unneticed and which may bring about unexpected
events and renercussicns. When x person has been working for the
Station, as J have, for fifteen years with little or no personnel
uandling problems, no security flaps, no obvious problems on the
job, and something cones up like the abrupt Separation of my
wife (LISMPTY-19) and re with the personal and potential security
visks it has entatled, J feel that some explanation i8 necessary.
Should it be in order, I would like this explanation te reach not
only my present case officer and Chiet of Station but also the
former Chief and officers with whom I have had the privilege to

work over the years,

3. I would like to give thanks, in advance, for the patience
and understanding that have been shown me thus far, Whatever the
final outcome, I know that pecple have been bending over backward
to be helpful and patient in hopes of an early solution to the
eonflict.

1958, my wife and baby girl, were moved, by the agency, into a

spacious, carpeted, furnished apartment near the DIZTAG Embassy,
which Served intermittently as a listening post-basehouse for the
agency, At the time, LIEWTY-19 was working as the manager of the
bookstore at the University cf the Americas and, at the seme time,
studying for a B,A, in philosophy, Thosr. were happy times. We
‘received a two-sionth leave, went to Europe, the Rome Olympics and

. visited LIEMPTY-19's family in Holland. Back in salexico, when the

- base was in operation. I stayed heme a lot (one of the revuirenents),
minded the cial and tave recorders and the baby -=- an unfortunate
reversal of marital roles, After exactly five years the basehouse
was closed down and we lost rent, LIEMPTY-19's salary and my
mother's salary which she had been receiving as part-time basehouse
keeper. My mother and youngest sister gave considerable help in
taking care of the baby while LIEMVTY-19 worked and when we went
to Furope and Jeft the baby with then, This was during the first
three years at the base until we had our second cliiild, Christopher,

5. We moved to a small apartment in Lomas and, to supplement
the loss cf salary aad rent allowance, the Station began paying
1,000 nesos a month fcr the use of a dark reom T had built or the
roof of the building, We had or third child, Madeleine, unplanned,
two months after settling in the two-bedroom apartment, The
apartment need not have been so small hut we had shosea it for its
Lecation and style and because it was to be a temporary stop until
we could find something better, We missed voting to the Olympics
in Tokyo which we had planned to do (1964) aad instead began
negotiating to buy a home beilding site at Rio Escondido but whea
the deal fell thragh, we decided to go on leave to Europe again,
this time with the two elder childven, leaving the baby with my
sister, We visited with LISMPTY-19's parents in Holland (they had
moved back to Holland after having lived in Washirgton, D.C,, since
1943) and the two children stayed with them while LIEMPTY-19 and I
made Side trips. Traveling is LIEMPTY-19's vreatest love in Life,
Upon our return to Mexico (J came back twe weeks earlier), LIEMPTY-19
was so depressed at leaving Kurove and being back in Mexico she was
enotionally and physically inaccessible for about six weeks, She
nad not fully adjusted to living ia Mexico or to settling down and
beconiag a housewife, Our cramped quarters, way of livitig, lack
of moaey, my job, my irregular hours and habits, my Friday night
poker games, the three children, all these got her dewn,

6. In the fall of 1965 after our return from Furope I began
teaching English to beginners in the adult education program at the
American School in the evenings. This started as a two-hour a
week meonlighting experiment but by early 1966, through student
contacts made at the school, I had branched ovt te teaching at the
offices of Carnation Milk Co,, Singer Sewins Machine, and
Richardson-Merrell Drug Co, for a total of about tweaty hours per
week, LIEMPTY-19, meantime, was working part-time at the Hamilton
School in Lomas where the two older children were attending. The
family finances improved and I was able to convince LIEMPTY-19 that

the best thing to do vas-to invest in land and build a house big
enough for our growing family which by now had a fourth child on

the way, With three friends as partners, I entered on a land-buying
deal which turned out to be complicated’ as we bought the land in

the form of company stock. The company was liquidated and the
assets were distributed, as land, to the four partners. I paid for
our share with tae proceeds fran the sale of a small lot I had been
paying for since.1955, LIEMPTY-19 was at first reluctant to tie

us down with a house but when we finally got the papers and land
deed straightened out, she threw herself wholehenrtedly into the :
project and the building whieh began in August 1967, While LIEMPTY-19
eupervised the construction, I worked during Septerber and October
almost full-time for the Oly:apic Organizing Committee and the group
Zrom Czechoslovakia which came ty train in the pre-Olympics. My
father-in-law deposited money ‘n Mexico to help us with the majoy
part of the financing of the house. We ured $256,500 pesos of his
morey and about $60,000 that LIEMPTY-19 and i had saved and got the
house tinished enough to move in in March 1968, We were very short
on furniture und shortly after moving, in bought three bedroom sets,
an autonatic washer and even a piano, Naturally, cash was svacce,
dirt was plentiful, The yard was a pile of rubble, the carpentry
work had just begun, there were no closets, the house was unpainted.
Theveaster, we did things on the 'cuse as the money came in:
continued with carpentry, finished the driveway, put in grass,

nuilt 2 fence and front rate,

7. Six months after moving in came time for the Olympics and
Y worked, unofficially tais time, with the water polo team from
Australia, LIetPTy-19 worked for the month with the Dutch and
Belgian radio aud TV group. LIgiMPTY-19 vas, once again, caught up
in the atmesphere of being among Europeans and doing something
exe‘ting and out of the routine of home aud children, She ‘fell in
love with the Australians as well, and for several months all she
eceld talk of was that we should move to Australia, TY gave it some
thought but decided that we had neither the money to invest nor the
youth and technical training to make it as pioncers “down under"
and, on the other hand, family, friends, a house, and job seniority

here in Mexicc,.

&, Toward the end of 1968, LIFMPTY-19 decided it was time for
me to move out of the master bedroom as she could no loager face
that aspect of ouy married life, For several months we tried this
but it did not werk out fer me, One night in March 1969 after we

when she, once again, refused to have aaythiag co de with me, I
got rough with her, prompting a decision on her pari, which she
had already been poudering, to visit her parents in Hiolland as soon
as possible. Her father provided the plane fare and she! left in
April for the United States to visit hex brother and sister and
Holland, for what she said would be a five week trip, She stayed

my mother who came to-hvip three days a week, Upon her return,
LIOPTY-19 bore an air of resignation rather than of enthusiranand,

“again, as on her previous return from Europe, was physically down

end sentally unhappy. When asked about her thoughts on Australia
she said that if she had wanted to live in Australta, she should
have married an Austrrlian. The separation bad not improved our
intinate relationship, :

9. %In Avgust I was to take fite weeks' leave and ¢£0 with the
children to Astro-World in tiouston aad visit my mother's family in
South Carolina, When I suggested postponing making monthly payments
on her father's loan until Deceaber when the Christmas Bonus would
cover the back debt, in order to make the trip, she vas adamant,
saying that if I did net have the cash for going, I should not take
leave, I borrowed from my iife insuraace policy and left with the
three youngest children, Adriana had a touch of aepaztitis and
joined us three weeks later. After spending the month in South
Carolina, we returned to Mexico to find that LIEMOTY-19 had very
much enjoyed her solitude. ‘We had already talked ubout divorce before
her trip to Holiard in the spring. I had told her that TI would not
corsider parting with the children and she said she would consider
leaving them tc me if I would settle the debt to her father as well
aS give her a Substantial share of what she considered was her part
of the house. The title of the house was in my name and had been
Since the buying of the land. LISMPTY-19mid Y could mortgage or
sell the house but that ihe money was what she was mainly interested
iu. I told her that the sale of the house was not financially
wise in its unfinished state and that the house and land are very
likely to appreciate sharply over the next three or four years
coasidering the housing developments going on in the area. Added
to this was ‘he seitimenta] attachment to the house and area, A
mortgage, on the other hanc, for the amount of her father's ioan
plus what she was asking, was something I could not afford considering
the more than 12 percent cost of such a mortgage in Nexico.

10, At the same time, during September 1969, that we were going
through the above-meotioned discussions, LIEMPTY-19 was taking a
course at Japan Airlines to become a tour guide ard group leader
for trips to the Orient as early as November 1969 and, certainly,
te Expo °'70 in Osaka during the spring and summerd 1970. “The
received a diploma to that effect, I told her th.t if she wanted
out cfr the marr“ave and wanted to be free to travel it was all
right by me but that the children would stay with me and I would
continue to repay he» father at the agreed rate ($2500 per month
and 5 percent per year), She then sought Jega)J adviee frou an old
friend, Dutch lawyer Guillermo Floris Margadant who, in turn, steered
hor to a young woman lawyer, Dra, Berta Martinez, who must have
advised LIEMSTY-19 that under the local legal system the only way
to try for a sizable cash settlement and considerable support was to
hang on to the children because LIEMPTY-19 made a radical "about-face"
in her attitude concevning them and she now said that she could not

“abandon” the children. I refused to visit her lawycr with her

“ Saying I was not interested in getting divorced, whereas she said

that her :nind was made up and that we would have to split up,
\

11, Things came to a head on the night of 12 Noverber when I
got home arvund 9 PM and she sugyerted we have a drink and talk
things over, I mixed Some martinis and she began laying down the
terms under which she thought we should get divorced, i.e. I should
move out of the house, mortgage to pay back her father's money,
grant her custody of the children and support of 2,000 pesos per
month per child ($8,000). I said I would not get divorced under
these conditions and we discussed anJ argued in the kitchen for about
three hours, killing a bottle of gin in the process. We went
upstairs’ and when I tried to make up to her she tried to rouse the
children, unsuccessfully, and then tried to leave the house which
I would not Iet her do. She got hysterical, phoned a neighbor,

Uta de la Hoz, then she rent into the front yard and awakened the
next door neighbors, Walter Hurley and his wife, and asked to go to
their heuse. A few minutes later, Uta and her husband Guillermo
came and LIEMPTY-19 went with them to their home two blocks away.
About a half-hcur later I walked up to Uta's to ask LIEMPTY-19

to come home but wes told that she was busy phoniug her lawyer

and would not veturrn,

12, The following morning I tyok the children to schocl as
usual and my sister Marcia (LIEMPTY-4's wife) picked them up ard
took them to her house where ] joined them tor lunch, Li:sipTy-19
eame by in the late afternoon while my sister was cut, piteked up
the children saying she was taking them home, failed to do so, then
disappeared and was not to be found,

13, It was the subsecuent action taken by LIEMPTY-19 in
dropping her lawyers and taxing on the services of Bernabe Jurado,
the most notorious penal attorney in Mexico, that led to the
potential security hazatds that ensued,

9 March 1970

TO ¢ Case Officer
FROM : GERENDE
SUBJECT: GERENDE Status Report
The present situation of the narital conflict between GERENDE and
his wife (LISMPTY-19) is as follows:
1. GERENDE is living at his mother’s apartment at 99 Carlos

B. Zetina Street, Apartment 9. He has rented a three-bedroom
-apartment at Tornael 2 corner with Pedro Antonio de los Santos where

he-has stored the household effects and furniture removed from his

former address at Ladera 39, Lomas de Bezares.

2, The house at Ladera 39 is rented to an executive of
Chrysler Corporation International, Dr. Leon MARKIEWICZ, his wife,
and fifteen-year old daughter, all of Argentine nationality. The
monthly rent is 6,700 pesos M/N and the contract is for two years,

beginning 1 February 1970. :

3. LIEMPTY-19 and the four children are apparently still :
living at the residence of the Netherlands’ Ambassador, Barcn

Schelto Van Heemstra at Pefia 360, Jardines del Pedregal, It seems :
fairly certain they are at that address from things that the two

older children, Adriana and. Chris, have said to GERENDE on the last

two occasions he has seen them. They have been there since

5 December 1969. LIEMPTY-19 has denied that she has a fixed address :

and says that she is staying with "friends,"

4, LIEMPTY-19 is continuing to use the services of Bernabe
Juardo as her lawy: > and, through him, is pressing for even more
advantageous terms in the. divorce thaa she had asked in November. ; i
Please see the attached copy and translation of the latest proposal : :

made by Juardo on 4 March 1970,
i

5. The charges and accusations made by LIEMPTY-19 against
GERENDE are still not completely resolved and are as follows: ‘

a. Insults, threats and attempted homicide -~- this charge
rests at the S° Juzgado Penal, 2° Corte Penal located at

~bE e ~ bey
f ral cde > % — Coe “ey Pa '
Le eel BL exis oer i ee a

rm

Lecumberri. | The judge is CRUZ Mellado. These charges have
not been pressed since they were originally made on 13 November

71969 by LIEMPTY-I9. The ruling on these charges, should the
case cone to trial, must be made by three judges of the 22 Corte

Penal composed of the 4th, 5th, and 6th Juzgados Penales, The

_ judge of the 6° Juzgado is Lic. QUIRAZCO, an alumnus of

GERENDE's latyer, Jorge Mario MAGALLON. Together they have,
on two occasions, been to speak to Judge CRUZ Mellado who
agreed not to: ‘issue an arrest warrant ant who has, finally,
called for a hearing on 16 March (subsequently postponed) at
10:00. MAGALLON has given GERENDE assurances that the charges
are likely to be dismissed,

b. Fraud -- this charge was made by LIEMPTY-19 and her
lawyer on 11 December 1969, the day after GERENDE left the
Villa Obregon jail after having spent a week there for :
disobeying a court order, (The court order ‘had consisted of
an unfounded request to have GERENDE expelled from his house
and to have LIENPTY~19 reinstated there with her father, as
the temporary custodian of the children, GERENDE refused then
adnissbn under those terms, hence disobeying the Villa Obregon
judge’s order, so the judge's secretary arbitrarily ordered,
on the spot, a l0-day detention. Subsequently, the judge,
LUCAS del ARSENAL, was forced to lift the detention after seven
days and dismiss himself from the case and divorce proceedings
as incompetent. The judge has had to face charges of
collusion from and with the lawyers of both parties, i.e.
Magallon and Jurado, The charge of fraud rests at Mesa 313
of the Procuraduria del Distrito Federal, The Public Ministry
Agent in charge of that table is Jorge GUTIERREZ Cruz,
LIEMPTY-19 claims that the money lent to her and GERENDE for
building the house at Ladera #39 was actually loaned to buy
the house and that GSRENDE, knowing they were married under

“ the separate property marriage clause hd wrongfully placed

the property in his name only, thereby committing fraud.

- Actually, the land was bought by GERENDE before Christmas 1965

in a complicated transaction involving three other partners:
Robert Bancroft WHITEHOUSE, John (Dick) RENNA, and James

Walter HURLEY, and each of the partners placed the property

in their respective names with the complete knowledge of their
spouses,- Later the land was subdivided and after nineteea
months the deeds were issued, LIEMPTY-19 supervised and prodded
the notary who made the transaction and she was perfectly aware
that the property was in GERENDE's name, In August 1967 when
construction of the house began, LIEYPTY-19's father's money
was used which he had deposited in Mexico for the purpose,
Since January 1969, according to the terms of the loan
agreement, GSRENDE has been paying it off and has receipts from
LIEMPTY-19 to show for it,

GERENDE has presented both the land deed ("escritura")
pre-dating the construction of the house and the receipts

_ Showing up to date payment of the loan at the "Mesa 314,"
No further action has been taken by LIEMPM Y-19 or her lawyer
on this matter but the. charge has not finally been settled and
is still pending. ‘The charge is, of course, unfounded and is
awaiting the proper “lubrication” in order to be filed away.

c, Neglect -- this charge was made by LIEMPTY-19 in ©
December ‘1969 at the 7° Juzgado Mixto de Paz claiming that
GERENDE had abandoned LIEMPTY-19 and the children to their fate
and that they were utterly destitute. GERENDE was not
notified of.this charge and on 9 February after attending a
hearing at.the Villa Obregon juzgado (see below), once out on
the sidewalk, Judicial police agents detained GERENDE, took
him to the Procuraduria and from there to Lecumberri. This
process involved being finger-printed and mugged, The
following day GERENDE was out on a 2,000 pesos bond and three
days later, 13 February, the justice of the peace (a woman)
formally set GERENDE free for lack of evidence. GERENDE and
Magallon went back on 5 March to pick up the bond money and
see if Jurado had appealed but he had not and, apparently,

that matter is closed,

6. On 14 November 1969, one day after LIEMPTY-19 disappeared
from home’ taking the children with her, GERENDE brought charges
against her for minor lesions and showed. medical proof thereof.
The hearing of 9 February after which GERENDE was detained, wag
called by Villa Obregon judge Bonfilto SEGURA. GERENDE reiterated
the charge, LIEMPTY-19 denied it, the judge ruled against her,
ordered her to prison but since the injuries were minor, it does
not require privation of liberty and she must only go and sign-in
once a week,

t

7. LIEMPTY-19 is at present teaching school at the Edron
Academy on Caleri. Street in San Angei Inn, The two older children
are going to school there. During the latter part of November, all
December and half of January, the children did not attend any
school, .On three occasions GERENDE has been to the school at 13:30
to try to speak to LIEMPTY-19 and see the children. LIEMPTY-19

has objected to this and the meetings mve been short and fruitless
except for GERENDE learning that they are still staying at the Dutch
Ambassador's, GERENDE's last visit there was on 3 March (Tuesday).

8. After the Villa Obregon judge dismissed himself from the
divorce proceedings, according to standard procedure, the case
went to Coyoacan and Xochimilco respectively where the judges,
in turn, excused themselves from the case and it has finally come
to reside at the Ist Juzgado Civil in the D,F, The judge is Olda
CORREA (woman) and has the reputation of being tough and pretty
straight. Since LIEMPTY-19 has not given an address where divorce
suit papers can be served her, the suit has not yet been initiated
on GERENDE's part. LIEXPTY-19, on the otherimnd, has not had


“ Sauer . ™

GERENDE served with papers though his current address is known,
apparently because she is still seeking a voluntary divorce along ~
the lines and terms which are stated in the accompanying set of

oO proposals, GERENDE cannot begin to accept these proposals ia

. : their-present form as they are patently unfair and hardly a point
to beginning bargaining from.

ACTION REDGRED - SEFERENCES

SUMMARY

-. 1, There has been no change in the operating procedures of
the two LIEMP’Y base houses, LICALLA and LILYRIC, or in the use
“made of the product, Raymond H, GERENDE contioues as .Project
principal agent, and renewed attempts have been made to broaden his
activities, to include additional agent nandling and the following
up of ops leads, After a slow start, some progress has been made,
sbut GERENDE is now involved in divorce proceedings with his wife.
(raise situation is steadily worsening and represents a potential
"security risk to LIESMPTY and other Station operations,

GERENDE

2. As Headquarters is aware, the Station has for some time .
tried to get additional mileage out of GERENDE. The Station has
long recognized GERENDE's not inconsiderable talents: He is personabla,
fiuent ia two languages (to the poiat where he can pass either as a
Mexican or an American with no trouble), he has considerable
experience in support activities, he has knowledge of the local
Scene which would be hard to duplicate, and he is completely at the
Station's disposai, He has also worked for RVROCK for close to
15 years, in effect making a career of RVROCK, and the Station
believes that this long period of service imposes on RVROCKX an
obligation to see that he is fairly treated and provided with benefits
which would not otherwise be due an agent with less lorgevity. On

[re other hand, GEREXDE has picked up some bad habits-—-he is not
‘punctual, his written reports leave much to be desired, and worst of
tall, he lacks drive and ambition. ;

a 3. After several largely abortive attempts to get GERENDE to
follow up operational leads (and after noting, at the same time, a
. : fine job-he did-in recruiting LIRICE-13), the Station decided to
. . . present GERENDE with what amounted to an ultimatum; Following a
. . 6ix-week léave at the home of réldtives in the US, he was told that
in recognition of his past services he was being given a salary
increase ‘to .$7, 000 US per annum (which may not seem like much until
it is realized that GERENDE pays ro taxes on this, and has the use
re” of a QP car, to boot). He was also told that -he would be given a
oe : oumber of ~leads to follow up (in some cases persons to whom he had
natural Recess; in ‘other cases leads which he would follow up under
wo cover and in alias) -a@s well'as agents to handle (in alias), It
OS . would be up to him “take advantage. of this opportunity to perform
~ up to his level of ‘ability; if he did so, Headquarters would be
willing to work out an annuity program which would relieve his
‘Worries about eventual retirement. . If he did not put out, he could
_ | expect to be terminated by the end of FY 1970, GERENDE expressed
DN .his gratitude and his willingness’ to put his shoulder to the wheel,
‘and, in fact, he has dofie. so. In October 1969 he took-over the
handling “of LIANVIb-1-froa Oliver G. SCANTLING, and the Station hes
started to givé him leads to follow up, His performance has improved
in every way--his punctuality has improved, his written reports
are continually improving, and he has made the effort to devise
approaches to the various leads and to start to follow up on them,

4. The Station was therefore highly encouraged, until 24
October, when GERENDE reported that his wife wanted a divorce, The
problem is basically one of incompatibility of personalities,

. exacerbated by the fact that GERENDE'’s operational activities
resulted in his being home more often than a man who works a normal
office day. GERENDE's wife had taken a long vacation alone earlier
in the year, visiting -her parents, and the leave taken by GERENDE,
referred to above, followed his wife's return and did not include
-her, Both times GERENDE had the four children, Thus the news of
\y the divorce request did not come as a real surprise, The problem,
¥ however, is that both parties want custody of the children, and the
ay dispute becomes daily more bitter and more violent, The station
4’ J bas taken the position that security of GERENDE'’s operations must
: be preserved at all costs, hoping, of course, that the divorce can
ic fe avoided, At this writing, the outcome cannot be guessed, If
fly? the bitter fight results in the surfacing of GERENDE'sS RVROCK
owt employment, LILYRIC and LICALLA are faced with at least ame threat
of exposure, ~The MHHARSHers are quite aware that a LILYRIC-like
facility exists; whether they suspect LICALLA is a moot question,

LICALLA is in many ways more useful, and the MHHARSHers could put

it out of business very easily by making their wall higher. Little

could, or probably would, be done to prevent LILYRIC from functioning.

YN 5. Other than LIANVIL-1 and the LIEMPTY assets directly
, n handled by GERENDE (LILYRIC and LICALLA personnel and LIEMPTY-4)
a other Station assets whose security might be affected by GERENDE's
*\ current problems include LIENTRAP, LIRICE~13, and the PCM OP,
¥ GERENDE is also aware of the, fact that some sort of operation,
presumably technical, is or has been conducted from the LIMESA
$\ complex; he is aware of the existance and knows scme of the members
_the LIEMBRACE team (LIEMBRACE~1, -2, and -4, among the currently
act and he knows of the existance of LIENVOY and LIFEAT. His
wife.is LIFEAT-19 and. has been a substitute transcriber as late as .

\
: Tate 1968, and his mother was LIFEUD-19 (a former LIFEAT basehouse

ue “ Keeper, ‘inactive since June 1964). : GERENDE also knows SCANTLING,

+, David M. WILSTED, and Rayrond’L. BARCHNAS, as well as ‘current Station |
: officers Vincent P, RIZZUTO and Bruce H, FERNALD (the latter in . .
alias), Ne has also met Andrew E, PELLEMENT, who used an alias,
Ta his 15 years, GERENDE has worked in almost every phase of the
Station's support activities, and even though in recent years he
has been pretty much restricted to LIEMPTY, his knowledge of
activities and assets which are still current is considerable, It
is too early to judge the-.outcome of GERENDE's problems, but the
Station is making every effort to see that security of operations
is not affected by whatever decision is reached,

LICALLA

6. The LICALLA base house has continued to function as in the
past. LIEMPTY-9 continues to be a conscientious recorder of events.
In addition to providing about 3,500 photos during the reporting
period, as well as comments on events and relationships which are
noted by him, he had provided special coverage as requested on
various ‘targets of interest, such as AETAKEOFF. During GERENDE's = |
absence on leave, LIEMPTY-9 was handled by SCANTLING.

LILYRIC

. A
. 9, LIKMPTY-13, -14, -26, aad -27 have continued to provide

full-time coverage of the MHHARSH Smbassy front entrance, providing

_-daily logs of the comings and goings of all officers, and about

*: 9,000 photos. during the reporting period. The LILYRIC base house
reported -on the visits of Americans ten different times, and provided

- special coverage ina connection with AEBURBLE, SCLEASE~2, and one
other LNERGO walk-in case, LILYRIC personnel were also handled by
SCANTLING during GERENDS's absence.

i s
LIEMPTY=4

‘8, As in the past, LIEMPTY-4 has done the developing and
printing of all LICALLA and LILYRIC photos, and most of the LIENTRAP
production. LIEMPTY-4 was handled by FERNALD during GERENDE's

absence.

_ COMMENTS

9, LIEMPTY coverage of the MHHARSH installation continues to

_ bea useful tool in the Station's operations against the MHHARSH
target. One IA in the Station spends several hours per week processi
the take, keeping mug book and files up to date, checking the infor-
mation in the logs against other reports when required (to determine
whether or not an agent or contact entered the MHHARSH installation
as claimed; or whether an AEGRIP or AEKICK officer was out of the
installation at a particular time, etc,) and analyzing the- LICALLA
production for insight into personal relationships, Useful
by-products include continual up-dating of MHHARSH license plates
and observation of demonstrations outside of the Embassy and
renovations within the grounds. Furthermore, in GERENDE the Station
has been attempting to develop on outside asset with considerable
flexibility, who has been used to make recruitments and assessments
as well as handle agents, GERENDE's personal problems are placing
his own career in jeopardy and posea potential security hazard to
LIEMPTY and other Station operations, This is a problem which will

7¢ be dealt with and resolved in the next reporting period and prior
i to the next Project renewal request. |

SUMMARY — . ~

1. There have been no basic changes in the operation of the
project during the reporting period. Raymond H, GERUND:E continues
a8 principal agent, handling the personnel of the two base houses,
LILYRIC and LICALLA, and performing other additional tasks, On

27 December 19U8&, consistent with our etlort to get as much of the
support activity as possible handled by outside officers, direct
agent-handling responsibility tor GHRENDi and the LINMPTY project
was turned over to Bruce H, FERNALD, Vincent P, RI4ZUTO remains
as alternate and as FERNALD's inside contact,

GERENDE

2. Until the introduction of FERNALD, there was no change in
the meeting arrangements with GERENDr. Meetings were held on an
average of three tines per week until October, when LIEMPTY-19
(GERENDiE'sS wife) was relieved oi the responsibility of transcribing
the Spanish-language portions of LIENVOY coverage of the BYDOX
installation, Therealter mectings averaged twice per week, the main
business being the transfer ot LIEVWYTY base house material and

discussion of base house business,

a, GSRENDE*s asent handling: responsibilities withia the LIKMPTY
project remain as ygreviously reported. He had also handled ERFAIN@Y
until the latter's termination tn August ivo8. He developed a good
relationship with EXFAIN-3, and he showed that he is quite capable,
with proper case otzicer puidance, oJ providing usetul service to
the Station in the handling of agents beyond the support type to
which he had been Limited in the past. The Station intends to try
to expand this rele, with due regard for securtty and for GeRENDE'S
limited experience, Yurthermore, the Station stilt has every
intentton ot using GSRENDE selectively in cultivation and deve lopment
o1 operational leads, as outlined in reference, No such leads wore
found for GERENDS ducing the reporting period (among other reasons,
we have no intentioa o: giving GERENDE a lead Simply for the sake of
giving him something to do), but ag soon as a suitable lead is
uncovered, it will be passed. to GERENDE.

4. GERENDE was particularly useful during the Olympic period,

White he did not-get-a job with the Olympic Committee as he had

hoped, his wife was eaployed as a translator by the European televisio
networks who had cene to cover the games. This, plus other personal
contacts, gave GERINDE a certain amount of access to Olympic lacilitie
Both GERENDE and his wite helped considerably in the distribution of
AEEGGHEAD material, acd GERENDE performed a number of miscellaneous
tasks assisting the Station in various Olympic responsibilities,

5, GERENDE has also been used in support: of JMROD operations,

. Such as making mail pick-ups and delivering material and making phone

calls to AMBASSUON, Sollowing the Warsaw Pact Powers’ invasion ot
Czechoslovakia, GERENDE way asked to cover a demonstration in front
of the Soviet bmbassy, and he wrote a good report which was used in
Embassy briefings, Recently, GERENDE has enrolled at the
University of the Americas to work for an M.A, in contemporary
Hexican history, The Station will explore the possibility of hts
getting access to persons or Ltnjormation of intexest on the University

campus,

LICALLA

G, LIEMPTY-9's work (in the LICALLA base house) was inhibited
in July due to the construction of a maid's room near bis working
quarters, During the reporting period, however, he took a total of
2,217 operational photoes. His regular reporting and commentary
continued as in the past. LIEMPTY-4 is a Steady and dependable per-
former, and his unique vantage point remains the source or the most
iaoteresting and revealing phoios.as well as often very informative

reporting,

LILYRIC

- 7. WLIEMPTY-13, -14, ~26, and -27 have been able to keep the
LILYRIC base house manned on a regular basis trom 0800 to 1800 hours
weekdays and O80 te 1500 hours on Saturdays, with other hours cover-
able upon request. Tnis has proven to be a iar petter arranzgement
than depending on LINIT=D for some of this coverage, In addition to
the 6,753 operationai photos taken during the reporting period and the
daily fixed snrveillasce reports, LILYRIC reporting is of considerable
help in compiling current vehicle and license plates lists, PCS arrivals
and departures, unuszal activities such as,demonstrations cr protests,
unusual or lengthy atsences of personnel, etc., all of which have
obvious CY importance, Ut was LILYRIC phetos which made it possible
for LNERGO ta identify the Subject of 201-84152U0, who had been in
clandestine contact with ARGRIP officers. LILYRIC also reported on

va half dozen other American (or American appearing) visitors, some of
whom it was possible cto identify through tracing license plates,

MEMORANDUM FOR: Acting Chief, Diviston D es

SUBJECT > Limesa/Liust Resets
Ts aor. se batae
1. Some attention should be devoted, if tt has not already
, been, to the dansers involved in this operation and particularly
to what countermeasuxves the target may institute, or may already
have instituted.

2. One current danger certainly exists, to wit, the exist-
ence of project Licalla base, which is in the group of buildings :
comprising the Limesa complex. One of the agents at Licalla 4
base is known to one of the Lipstick agents srrested in the ‘ :
sumer of 1958, and it is, hence, possible that both the host
government and the target knows of Licalla. It ts suggested
that perhaps Licalla should be terminated. The reason has been
advanced that this should not be done since the agent would be
suspicious and in any event Licalla might serve as a red herring
for Limesa. It is believed that the Licalla agent could be
gotten out of this operation without arousing his suspicion. The
Station could mount an obvious tail on him; when he reported it,
he could be told he had probably been made and that, hence, the
operation should no longer continue. The agent has been a good
one and could be used elsewhere on some other work. Licalla
house is going to be repaired soon. This might be a good oppor-
tunity to step work there and let some innocent party rent it.

That would be a better red herring.

3. Concerning the manner in which Limesa houses were acquired
by the Station, it should be kept in mind that the purchase mechanian
was identical with that used in Limited. The watchman at Limited
knew an American owed it and told this to what to him must have
seemed a casual visitor to the premises when it was under repairs,
We should, therefore, assume the targets know an American owns it
and that it is blown. Therefore, we should also assume that if
the targets have conducted any sort of an investigation of Limesa
houses, they may well have discovered that the same ultimate owner
is involved. So far as is know, the dank which fronts for the
purchases has not been checked to see if any inquiries have been

‘ made. We must agree the targets have the carability to find out
who the front owner is--the bank-- and from there could possibly
| . estabdlish the identity of the omer, Limousine. Limousine and his
: firms have also been used as cover for other Station agents and
operations apart from Limesa and Limited.

eee a od


14.90000

7H,

4, It should not ve forgotten that a person tried both to . ”

rent and buy Limesa properties earlier in the year after ve

owned then. So far as we know, a check on this person was not.

productive of suspicious data, but the question arises as to how

thorough the investigation was. Possibly the name the man gave

when making inquiries was false, meaning that {in effect the right :
pérson has never been investigated at all. Knowing that the ns °
targets have in the past shown some interest in the Limesa duild-

ings, it is not beyond the realm of reason that this man was sent

by them. The story he gave for wishing to rent the house--because

it was handy and close to a certain school--is identical vith the r
story used by the Station to cover rental of Licalla almcst next
door.

5. Even grenting that the true ownership of Limesa has not
been discovered by the targets, they have various recourses through which
to establish the identity and activity of the occupants thereof. ‘The
following possibilities suggest thenselves:

a. Enter into litigation with Limesa owner over exact
boundaries or other pretext, demanding property be
surveyed. On court order, Limesa could be inspected

thoroughly.

Db. Undermine target side of Limesa walls, leading to
possible condemnation of property by local government
or necessity various repaira, etc.

¢. Sabotage of electricity (causing fire) or water or
sewage, necessitating entry into Limesa of outside per-
sons, who could be infiltered by target agents.

d. Ramming by vehicle, with similar results, police,
firemen, etc. a

e. Complaint to medical authcrities on filth, refuse, etc.,
leading to inspection by health authorities.

f. Various other approaches night be discussed.
’

6. One general recommendation can be made: sensitive material
should be used and kept in a. crypt, and a good one, rather than in
the relatively insecure special roam now planned as the operational

roon.

7. ‘Beyond this, every effort should be made to see to it that
the operators have good cover. The idea of clothing them in local
clothing is excellent and shows right thinking in that direction.

Summar

1. During the reporting period, the project's principal
agent, Raymond H. GHERENDE, was assigned additional tasks, aimed
at broadening his usefulness to the Station, These tasks
included spotting and assessment as well as the handling of a
recruited agent, ERFAIN-3.% GERENDE did well, and it is believed
that a new dimension has been opened for him, and by the same
token, the Station hag, in effect, gained a new asset, The
LIEVPTY base houses continued to produce at their usual rate
and with their usual effective support to Station REDTOP oper~
ations, The LIMITED Base House and its operator, LIEMPTY=-6, ~
were terminated on 31 May 1968, Termination was decided upon
partly to save money and partly because advancing age had measur-
ably decreased the reliability and effectiveness of LIEMPTY-6's
work, LIEMPTY-26 was rehired, which permitted the LILYRIC Base
House to give us the same total hours of coverage as LILYRIC

and LIMITED had together in the past,

GERENDE
2 During the. reporting period, tne ease ofiicer has been

meeting GHRENDS an average of three times per week, Meetings
are usually preearranged, at various sites and times, Meetings
average 20 to 3O minutes, GLRENDE turns over to the case
/ oificer negatives, prints, logs, and other reports which he has
wn picked up from’ the base houses since the previous meoting,
alon,; with brief contact reports on his meetings with base
house representatives. Reports on other operational activities
are also turned in and discussed, and GERENDE is given instruc-
tions, notes for the base houses, and negatives for any enlarges
meats which may be desired by the Station, Also, LIENVOY tapes
and transcripts are exchanged at each meeting. (The departure
of LIACUTE-1 at the end of April 1968 left the Station without a
BEDOX transcriber, As a temporary solution, pending the return
‘of LIACUTE=1 or the recruitment of another BEDOX transcriber,
GERENDE's wile, LIEMPTY=19, has been hired at the rate of 31.50
pesos per hour to transcribe the Spanish language portions of the
tapes, She does the work in her home, and GERENDE transports the

tapes.)

3. GERENDE has the direct agent-handling responsibility for
the following LIEMPTY agents: LIEMPTy-4 (phoeto-processor; met
twice per week); LIEMPTY-G (LIMITED; met once per week until.
termination); LIEMPTYs 13, 14, 26, and 27 (LILYRIC; LIEMPTY-13
normally met twice per wook -~ in his absence LIEMPTY-27 makes

- meetings); and LIEMPTY-9 (LICALLA; met twice per week). Ile is
responsible for directing their work, paying them, and handling
all of the administrative problems which may develop. To judge
from the results, GERENDE has excellent rapport with these agents
ana is able to get a consistently high performance rate from
them -- particularly LICALLA and LILYRIC personnel,

4. As noted in reference, GERENDE was omployed by the
Mexican MHHAVEL committee, which we found a useful side benefit,
His MHRAVEL activity during tne reporting period has been minimal,
but we expect it to start picking up again, GSRENDE has con-
ducted a few discreet inquiries and investirxations for us within
the MHRAVEL complex, and we have instructed him to try to get
an asSignment which will keep him as close to the FJSTEAL

delegation as possible,

5. Reference also pointed out that GERENDE had perlormed
nicely in the cultivation and development of au operational
lead, and that the Station planned to pive GeRENDE more of the
same, Furthermore, GERUNDE's standing assignments (LIEMPTY
base houses, MURAViR activity, and occasional support o: JMNROD
requirements) were not challenging enouga or eceupying enough
of GERENDE's timo. GEREND® is rather firmly committed to
WORTSM by virtue of the fact that he has worked for WOYIRM for
over 13 years and has no other outside employment of any
consequence, Fy the same token, he was, throurh no fault of
his own, dotny less work lor WOFIRM than at any time in his
career, GiRENDE'S operational exposure through the years
dictated more and more vestriclions on his aetivity, for sound
Security reasons, The solution to GERENDS's problem (lack of
a promising future) and the Station's (not setting its noney's
worth) secened to be to give GERENDi additional tasks which he
ceuld handle under suitable cover and with due regard to security
precautions, Since most of GERENDEts support retivities had
been against the FJSTEAL target, particular care would have to
be taken in committing him further in this direction, It was
decided, therefore, that his principal retooling would be in
a non-FJSTREAL Lield,

6. Ta'line with the above reasoning, GERENDE was introduced
to Anarew &, DOSCHER on-17 February 1968, The idea was that
GERENDE would be “trained to assist DOSCHER in some of his
operations arainst Central American targets. GERENDE's principal
duty, thus far has been -to’ take over the handling of ERFAIN-3,
under PCSCRER's close supervision and guidance, GERENDE has
performed quite ereditably in this task. He seems interested
in the werk and has learned quickly, On the other hand, an
apparently ingrained habit ol procrastination has resulted in
dilatory reverting, If GERENDE can overcome this (and both case
officers are working hard to teach GEKENDE the importance of
prompt and complete reporting) there seems to be every reason
to believe GzRENDE will devulop into a competent agent handler.

7. GSRENDE was also piven the task of locating and developing

(in alias) a sirl who, por LIENVOY, was being cultivated by
AERODENT. Although GERENDE bad to be continually reminded of the
assignment, he did an excellent job of meeting the girl and
faining her confidence. It is quite likely that he could have
recruited the girl as an access agent against AERODINT, but as
this point was reached another operation against AERODENT was
launched and it was not felt that attempting to recruit the cirl
would serve any useful purpose, for the time being at least
(among other things, there was no indication that she had had

any contact with ASRODENT for some months). The only flaw in
GERENDE's performance was the time it took him to get around to
doing the job. It should be mentioned, however, that at the

same time GERENDE had a number of pressing personal matters to
“attend to, including oversccing the completion of his new house,
which he finally moved into on 10 March 1968, even though
construction is still not entirely completed,

8, aAmeng other assignments completed by GERENDE in the
reporting period wore the renting of an apartment for use as a
listening post; and initiating a relationship with a Russian
translator working for the MHURAVEL committee,

LICALLA

9, The star of the LIEMPTY show, as far as quality of
performance iS concerned, continues to be LIEMPTY-~9, His
favorable lecation and his perceptiveness continue to result in
revealing photos and equally revealing commentary, In addition
to the 2,908 operational photos taken during the reporting
period, he has provided daily, weekly, and monthly summaries and
‘notes, Ssemi-nonthly attendance reports (of FJSTEAL personnel
spotted by him), various special reports, and special intensive
coverage of the following: 201-120123; 201~-107668; 201-271102;
and 201-305870. As of 1 May 1968 LIEMPTY-9's salary was raised
from 4,000 pesos to 4,500 pesos per month. LIEMPTY-9 was also
given pernission to have a maid's room constructed on the roof
of his apartzent. The original maid's room is LIEMPTY-!'s photo
point, The maid, who has been with the family for 11 years
(since she wes 10) eicher sleeps in the hall, where she is in the
way, or in the bedroom of LIEMPTY-9's nine-year old son, which
LIEMPTY-~9 feels is beginning to be not a proper arrangement,

The room will be built at a point on the roof away from the
FJSTEAI installation (so as to arouse as little suspicion as
possible), and the fact that the maid will be seen going in and
out of the recom regularly should quiet any suspicions which may
arise, Construction work put LICALLA out of action starting

24 June, but it is expected that the work will be finished by

20 July,

should be pointed out that this blanket coverage is useful
insurance that all activity is caught. Combined wath the
daily fixed surveillance reports on all members of the ¥JSTEAL
- installation, the Station can safely say that its coverase of
FJSTEAL installation ingress and egress is complete during
working hours (and any extra hours which the Station wishes
covered). Since k May LILYRIC has been on dut¥ 57 hours per
week: OS00-1800 weekdays and OsS00-1500 Saturdays. Commensurate
wich their new schedule (and the return of LIEMPTY-26 to the
4d: - active rester), the total monthly LILYRIC salary has cone {ron
- 4,900 pesos per month to 6,000 pesos per month (LIEMPTYs 13,
14, 26, and 27, are of course, father, mother, and two sons).
The fixed survoillnnce reports are used on a daily basis, since
the Station constantly has operational interest in knowing
whether a particular FJSTKALER was ‘in’ or "out" at a particular
. time, and if our, who he went with, what time he left, etc.
In addition, LILYRIC has standing instructions to notify
GERENDE (and GERENDE the Station) immediatoly when American-
appearing visitors come to the FJSTEAL installation, Bight such
visits were noted in the reporting period, along with a nunber
of other visitors who, for one reason or another, attracted the

special attention of LILYRIC.

LIMITED

11, LIEEWTY-6 slowed down noticeably in the reporting period,
He was ill several times, his surveillance reports were occa~
sionally inaccurate, and his photographic work was pour. With vie
the assurance that LILYRIC would be able to take up the slack an
(and give us better coverage for less money) the decision was
NITED base house. While we are thereby

made to terminate the LI
denied some of the flexibility which we have had in the past,

{it is likely that LIEMPTY-6 would slowly havo faded out ar the
picture anyway. While he was in there, he produced 911 cpera-
tional photos, as well as daily fixed surveillance reports.
Following nis termination (a report oi which is being ‘rorwarded
separately) LIEMPTY-G took a trip to Europe and has now started
working. full-time in the insurance business for his sou-in-law,
where he has gained a new lease on life. In other words, the
termination couldn't have been more amicable, LIEMPTY-6 vacated
the LIMITED apartment (he said he could not afford to: Keep
paying the rent) and it is no longer available to the. Station.

1, On ZF July 1967, Raymond H. GERENDE, principal agent
for the LIfW@TY project, was introduced to his new case officer,
Vincent P, 3t22UTO. The major reason for the change in case
officers wes ty bring the LIEMPTY project into the section which
it is largeir designed to support, the REDTOP section, In the
three-month seriod covered by this progress report, GERENDE was
met by the tase officer 32 times, Neetings were normally pre=-
arranged, with times and sites varied (with the introduction of
the new case officer, most of the former regular meeting sites
were droppe: and new ones substituted). Meetings were occasionally
arranged vis telephone, in which.case & prearranged code was used.
Due to GERENDS's MHRAVEL activity (see below) it was not always

ea a

possible to stick to a fixed meeting schedule.

2, GERENDE met with LIEMPTYs-4, 9, and 13 on a twice-a-wesk
basis, and ETEMPTY-6 once per week during this period, These
meetings wer prearranged. AS explained below, GERENDE no longer

additYfon, he provided fixed surveillance reports, sighting reports,
and spectal notes and comments, LIEMPTY-9 has proven himself to
be a reliable and perceptive reporter of the events he observes,
For this reason, he has been asked to provide special coverage on
various individuals of interest, or on particular days when covere-
age is desired, The Station has found the LICALLA reports to be
consisteutly useful in determining the presence, activities, and
personal associations of target personnel, In part this is due
to the location of the LICALLA base house,. but it is also due to
the interest, effort, and judgement of LIEATTY-9 himself. ealecdd et

5. The LILYRIC bass house has been a prolific provider of
operational photos, 4.074 having been submitted in the period
under review. While there 15 occasionally sugertluous coverage
of visiting sports and cultural delegations (and LILYRIC personnel
have been: instructed to be more selective in this respect) the
blanket coverage afforded by this base house munrantees that
nothing will be missed during normal working hours, ‘The fixed
surveillance reports are voluminous, highly aceurate, and quite
valuable. On three separate occasions during the reporting
period LILYRIC alerted the Station to the presence of American

G, The efficiency of the LIMITED base house has sutfered
a slow decline. LIEMPTY-6 has been out of action for short
periods because of illness and a physical examiuation, The
physical, however, showed that he is in goad health and we look
for an improvement in his performance tn the next reporting period.

direct contact with LIEMBRAC:-1, leader of the LIEMBRACE surveil-
lance team, This arrangement, which began in mid-August 1967,
has proved to be a very happy one operationally. In addition to
permitting more flexible use of LIENTRAP for Station requirements
across the board, it has left GERLNDE more time to devote to

the base houses, and in addition made 269 enlargements in the
period under review. During this period, the phote lab was
moved to LIEMFTY-4'S office because cf renovations going on in
GERENDE's house, LIEMPTY-4 processes the photos atter working
hours, and keeps the equipment and photos Locked away during the
day. AS LIEMPTY-4's office is in his home, the equipmert and

GERENDE exhibited corsiderable
resourcefulness and operational skill in developing the target

to a point where the recruitment attempt was possible. We Plan
to use GERENDE in similar roles in the future as opportunities
-arise, and for this reason we plan to document him with a set

of false Mexican documeutation as well as a set of false Anerican
documentation, GERSNDE is collecting exemplars and getting the
background intormation needed, and once the necessary data are
assembled, Headquarters (WOACRE) support will be requested.

10. GERENDE has continued to provide support fo
operation as needed,

11. In September and-October 1967 GERENDE was employed by
the Mexican MHRAVEL committee, He was able to get assigned as
aide to the DIZTAG delegation. In this capacity he was able to
supplement very nicely the information and support being provided
by Jeremy S. HODAPP, This foot-in-the-door came in very handy,
and is expected to be even more valuable in 1968, if GERENDS can
get the position again. While the job was rather time-consuming
we believe that it was well worth it,

12. In connection with his duties with MHRAVEL, as well as
in connection with the fact that his WOFIRM activities are nearly
100% against the FJSTEAL target, GERENDE was given a very general
briefing on the Station's REDTOP program, It is our hope chat,
in having a better idea of what the Station is trying to do in
this field, GERENDE will be able to make an evon greater contring
bution to that program than he has in the past.

_ 4. There were no known security incidents during the perial covered in tnis
report. As a precautionary measure, the LIEMPTY vasénousekeepers . were instructed
to cinintain incrensed vigilance in their respective areas and buildings and’ to de
prepared to evacuate any incriminating equipment ani papers on a moment's notice.
This was done because of the renewed interest in the assassinaticn of President
Kennedy which in turn brought forth coments in the press about photographs 5
taken of Oswald during his visit to Mexico. On three occasions during this period,
LIEMBRACE-3 surveilled the operational meetings between GERANTS and L. 66
This was done in” order to try to ascertain if any FJSTEAL persormel were’ ‘taking
aeasures to verify the activities of LIFMPTY-¢, LIEMBRACE-5 reported that all’
of the meetings he covered appeared to be clean of hostile surveillance.
(NOTE: Headquarters is aware of the interest FJSTEAL has taken in LIEMPTY-6.
LIEMBRACE-3 does not know the exact location of LIMITED/LIENTY-¢, although he

the surveillance team when working the FISTEAL.target. In omer to avoid .
LIEMBRACE-3 survetlling LIEMPTY-6 to the exact address, LISNSRACS-3 was instructed
to surveill GERENDE when he departed the meeting site and to report to GERENDE
after LIEMBRACE-3 was convinced that there vas no hostile surveillance and after

they had departed the meeting areas)

LICALLA
5. During this period LIEMPTY-9, operator of the LICALLA basehouse, provided ,

‘1112 frames of operational photographs covering the patio ané carden area of

FJUTEAL, All photographs provided by LIEMPTY-9 were accompanied by fixed-

surveillance reports, sighting reports and special notes, LIENPTY-9 is a per

ceptive individual and his special notes and comments are considered to be of

great value by the interested section in the Station. LICALLA coverage vas

suspended during the period 19: through 25 March while LIEMPTY-° was taking a well-

deserved vacation, The cover of the LICALLA basehouse appesrs to remain good,

with no undue attention devoted to it by FUSTEAL personnel,

LILYRIC

6. This basehouse, which is staffed vy LIEMPTY-13, -14 ant -27, produced

2553 frames of operational photographs during the review period. LIEMPTY-13 is
employed full-time and most of the coverage is provided by LIENPTY-14, and -27,
although during this period, LIEMPTY-14 carried the largest share of the workload.
In March the hours in which LIEMPTY-27, a medical student, attemied school

were changed from the afternoon to the morning. This schedule change Will remain
in effect until the end of June 1967, LIEMPTY-14 does not have the mental composure
to remain on the Job for the hours needed to provide fll-tise coverage and her
homekeeping duties often interfered with her vorking hours. In order to alleviate
this problem, the working hours of LYEMPTY-6/LIMITED ware increased and those of
LILYRIC/LIEMPTY-14 decreased, No serious loss of coverage resulted from this ten-
-porary change in working hours. The salary of LIEMPTY-27 was cut in half for the
period of time in which he will not de providing contimal assistance to the Project,

GENERAL

1. Project LIEMOTY is rn support project which provides information of
CI/CE interest on the FISTEAL installation, FJSTEAL personnel, visitors to
PJSTEAL, both indisenous and foreign, and photogrephic coverage of various
targets deemed of interest by the several oparstitonal sections within the
Station. The Project has efght active agents plus Raymond H. GERSNDE,
Princtpel Agent; two vehicles, GERENDE'’s QPV ani the LIENTRAP photo truck;
a photographic. processing laboratory; and, three basehouses, LILYRIC, LIMITED
and LICALLA, LIEMPTY-10 and LIEMPTY-11, operators of the photo surveillance
truck, also acquire ard service P, 0. boxes used operationally by the Station,

Headquarters and other Stations.

2, On 9 December 1966 Luke B, MARSCHALEX (p) assumed Case Officer res-
ponstbilities for the LISMPTY Froject. MARSCHALEK was introduced to GERENDS in
true name and GERENDS is the only member of the LIEMPTY complex whom MARSCHALEK
has met. Theré were no problems during the change of Case Officers and none
are envisioned in the future.

CONTACT AND COMMUNICATIONS

3. During the period under roview, 30 meotings vere held with GERENDE by
the Project Case Officer. Meeting sites and times were varied to avoid
establishing a pattern and most meetings were scheduled at the previous meeting.
Several unscheduled meetings wore held during this period and were arranged by
the Case Officer telephoning GER:NDE to establish the meeting time and site.
Times and sites are coded when discussed by telephone and are arranged in such
a way as to appoar to be a normal conversation. Telephone calls to GERENDE are

‘made from pay booths located away from the LNPURE installation.

tit h, -QERENDE held twice weekly, clandestine meetings vith LIEMPTY-4, -6,
-9, ~10, -11 and -15. These regular meetings dre all prearranged and are held
at various sites and at various times of the day so that meetings correspond
with the regular habits and movements of the basehousekeepers and LIENTRAP

operators. fore]
5. All assets involved in the LIEMPTY project performed in a most ‘

satisfactory manner during the period under review. LIFHUD-4 has been extremoly

efficient in developing and printing negatives provided by the other assets,

PRODUCTION AND ACTIVITIES

6. LICALLA., During this period LIEMPTY -9, operator of the LICALLA
tasehouse, provided 1,239 frames of operational photozraphs covering the patio
and garden of the FJSTEAL installation, the area where many of the officers,
family members and visitors congregate. This coverage ic especially valuable
because the officers are usually at their leisure and often gather into
functional groupings. LIEMPTY-9 is very observant ani his comnents and notes
ere considered of great value to the Station, All photos provided by LIEMPTY-9
are accompanied by a fixed-survetllance report.

7. \LILYRIC. This basehouse is staffed py LLEPTY-13, “14, and -27 with
LIEMPTY-1 and -27 providine most of the coverage because of the full-time
outside empLoyment of LIEMPTY-13, During this period the LILYRIC basehouse
provided 2,716 frnnes of operational photographs covering the only vehicle and
pedestrian entrance into the target installation, All photographs were
accompnnied by tixed+survelllance reports on individual members of the staff of
the target installation. The operntors are often able to grovide the license
‘plate numbers of vehicles used by visitors to the target installaticn, which

in many cases help to identify the visitor.

8. LIMITED, The operator of the LIMITED basehouse Is LIEMPYY-6, The
LIMITED baschouse also provides coverage of the only vehicle and pedestrian
entrance to the FJSTEAL installation, but from a different angle, and the
comments made relative to coverage in the section on LILYRIC also vertain to
LIMITED, ‘The LIMITSD basehouse provided 557 frames cf operntional photographs
during this period. LIMITED alse serves as the radio alert for the LIEMARACE
surveillance team, although the practice of using a radio alert is being de-~
creased, On two occasions during this period LIEMPTY-6 was elertins for the
team in a deception exercise, since the team was not working the FUSTEAL
tarset. Tnis was done on instructions from the Station and LIEETY-6 was not

told that these were deception exercises.

9, LIENTRAP, During this period as in the last reporting period, the
LISVORAP mobile surveillance untt was targetted mainly against the local
Communist parties as well as members of other Herisrhere parties who are
Miving or are in exile in Mexico. ‘The LIENTRAP cperetcrs are LIE}STY-10
and LIEMPTY-11 and during this period they produced 564 crames o2 cperational
chotorravhs. LIFMPTY-10 and LIzMPTY-11 also service over 20 postal boxes
which are used es accomodation addresses ty the Mexico City Station, Head-

quarters and other field stations.

10. Raymond H, GERENDE, Aside from his regular duties as the Frincirel
Agent for the LIEMPTY Project, GERENDE also provided valuable assistance in the
furtherance of objectives involved in the JMROD operation, In this regani,
Thomas G, URQUHART, Headquarters cfficer, held approximately seven cverational
meetings with GERENDE during this reporting period.

ACTION REQUIRED RESUMMED

Action Required:. For Your Information

1. In Deceater 1966 Raymond H. GERENDE, Principal Agent for the LIEMPTY
Project, was asked to prepare a security resume, including hia opinions, on
the security of the LILYRIC, LIMITED and LICALLA Basshouses vis-a-vis Soviet
knowledge of their oxtstence. The following paragraphs contain a slightly
edited version of GERENDE's report, which was received on 28 Decesbor 1966,
Station comments follow GERENDE's and are so noted.

LILYRIC
2. In its present new location LILYRIC is the newest of tha photo bases
under my control, According to LIEMPTY-13, there has been no indication of
interest of any sort by the Soviets in the family's move to the new apartment
nor was there in the past any show of interest or peculiar behavior on their
(Sovtet's) part with regard to the old base and the possibility that they might

be under photo surveillance.

3. The cover for the work carried on by this base is good since the
wife, LIEMPTY-14, who does most of the work has no trouble in justifying
her presence at home all of the time. The son, LIEMPIY-e7 is a medical
student anil attends hia classes regularly and can Justify his hours as
study hours. (He continues to be an excellent student and war exeapted from
examinations at the end of this, his second year in medical schocl. Actually,
he studies most of the night), LIEMPTY-13 requires no cover as he has a
full-time job as oroduction manager for a large concern and he usually makes

his meetings with GERENDE on his way to or from work.

&, ‘The set-up in the old as well as the nev bese is tha followings
The cquipment < camera, scope and tripod -. ia mounted in one ‘bedroom behind
venetian. blinds with one slat resoved. This room is locked to keep servants
or any chance intruder from entering. The operators do not spend all their
time behind the camera, tut go to the adjoining bedroom where a table and
.. typeyriter are set up and whero the daily logs are transcribed, knitting dane,

"or gome other activity that does not require: full concentration te carried out.
The curtains and blinds in this room are kept partially or fully open to allow
food visibility and provide a normal appearance. Most of the daily movement of

- the Soviet personnel {s followed from this room and when it is necessary to

_ take pictures of visitors, unknown perscné or newly arrived Soviets, the
“operators go to the other room and use the pre-set equipment.

-5. GERENDE's Comment. It seems to me that any careful observation by
the Soviets would have revualed the tell-tale position of the venetian blinds
in doth the old and the new bases, I have no doubt that the Soviets realize
they are under photo surveillance. The move by the family from the old to the
new building must surely have been noted by the Soviets, Possibly the Soviets
think the family is working with the local authorities due to LIEMPTY-13's
former association with the Mexican Arny.

6, Station Comments. The Station agrees with GERENDE that careful
observation by the Soviets would have revealed the missing slat in the venetian
blinds and also the fact that these blimis are seldom open. The Station also
agrees that the Soviets realize that they are under photo survelllance,

This was pointed out recontly when a Soviet shielded an LNEKGO walk-in when
they passed the front gate of the Onbnassy and made a sign to the walk-in
indicating that they could be seen by someone watching with a telescope

from the buildings across the street. Also, as Heedquarters is aware, there
have been numerous comments by residents of Mexico City to the effect that
anyone entering the Soviet Imbassy is photographed; however, seldom has it

been rumored that the "Americans" are doing it, which might indicate most people
bolteve the Mexican Government is doing any such photographing and thereby
reaffirming GERENDE's statement that the Soviets possibly believe the Mexican
Government runs the base.

7. Given the assumption that the LILYRIC base is blow, the Station at
this point does not plan to terminate or revamp the LILYRIC installation,
Any operational change by the operators would be spotted by the Soviets and
if the Base were closed the Soviets would start looking for a new installation,
Tne LILYRIC Base is performing a useful function and it is believed that it
wild continue to do so. The Soviets nave had opportunities to complain to
the Mexican Government about being monitored photographically and have not
seen fit to do so and it is believed that they probably wlll not do so unless
there is a radical change in soviet and/or Mexican policy. The Station has
instructed GEHLNDE to take every precaution during his meetings with LIFMPTY-13
to assure that LIEMPTY=-13 does not lead the Sovlets to him and thereby
deopardizing other operations, espectally LICALLA.

LINTITED

8. The operator of the LIMITED Base, LIEMPTY-6,is, to my knowledge,
the oldest hand in the photo surveillance of the Soviet target and possibly
the xcst likely to be “burned”, His residence for years at the former Base
(now the site of the new LILYRIC building) and his move to the present base
could not have gone unnoticed by the Soviets. His cover is that of an
insurance salesman, but ha actually does not work at the cover and ie at
a disadvantage in trying to explain his source of income, At times, in years
past, he had to afford full-time coverage from the base, which allowed him
no tine to engage in credible cover activities,

9. GERENDE Comments. I do not believe that LIEMPTY-6/LIMITED isa
security risk; however, his present means of working trom an open door leading
.to his balcony probably can be spotted by the Soviets, LIEMPTY-6 is extremely
cautious about checking himself for surveillance when making meetings.

LICALLA

11. When the Soviets raised the height of the
about two years ago, they could have ‘blocked completely the view of this
base's working window by making the wall a few inches higher. Since they did
not do this, it would seem to indicate that they are not awere that their
activities are being monitored from. this point. On the othor hand, in recent
months LIEMPTY-9, the. operator, has reported that activitios in the back
vard have been curtailed more and more. Por example, the women no longer
congregate there daily, the school children enter their classes by a route
not visible to LIEMPIY-9 ar.. the trees and shrubs have not been trimmed in
years, making LIEMPTY-9's view poor in oct directions. LIMMPTY-9 says that
he has never noticed any undue interest in his house or his activities by
the Soviets. Acceso to the operating room can be seen from the window which) ' * '
LIEMPTY-9 believes to be the commo room in the target inatallation. vhs

: 12, The cover for this base je that of a normal residence. LIEMPTY-9's

agency in the afternoon only. LIEMYTY-9 does work in his cover. LIEMPTY-9's
cover for the use of the operating room is that he does accounting work for

the cervant to enter, even for cleaning purposes. The equipment is kept
locked in a trunk within the room when not in use and all logs and photos
are kept in a safe located in LIEMPTY-9's8 bedroom closet.

13. -GENENDE Comment. I believe the Soviets are aware of the photo
surveillance being carried out by this base due to the position of the window
and the curtains during the hours when LIGPTY-9 is operating.

The Station does not believe that this photo base
This belief 15 tased on the tnct that the LICALLA
coverage is excellent and there, has been no indication that the Sovlets act
for tho benefit of observers while they are in the backyurd, It is interesting
to note that the Soviets made no effort to "protect" the LNERGO walk-in mentioned
in paragraph 6. above during a visit to the backyard and LICALLA did obtain
photographs of the walk-in, Tne school children no longer pass through the
backyard because the location of tna school was recently chanzed and the children
now go by another route. The Station has instructed GEHLNDE to take every pre-
caution in order to protect the security of the LICALLA base.

15. As a general comment pertaining to the security of the bases in-
volved in Project LIEMPTY, it should be noted that the Soviets are aware of
the fact that LIMOUSINE is the owner/builder of the now LILYRIC building.
LIMOUSINE is also the omer of the LIMESA complex, through a holding company.

16. The Station realizes that most of the details reported in this
dispatch are known to Headquarters; however, the Station wanted to make the

During the period under review, Raymond H. GERENDS was seen 2. tines in
regular operational meetings by the LILMPTY Project case officer. Mo basic
changes other than the regular preplanne! variations in meeting sites and
“times vere made in the Project communication channels. The up-dated and
revised emergency couminication system for contact with OERENDS (see
HMMA-28335, dated 21 February 1966) resains in effect. All regular contact
with the active LIEMPTY agents (LIE@TYs -4, -6, -9, -10, -11, -13, -1b,
and -26) was maintained via Raymond H. Sarunoe” GERENDS met each of the
“above eited agents, with the exception of LIEMPTYs -14, and -26, two times
‘each week in clandestine meetings, The operational performance of all active
_ LIEMPTY agents, including GERENDE was most satisfactory. The performance
“of LIEMPTY~4 in “assisting the local WACRE section with its photosraphic

processing | was outstanding.

} Fo. ACCOMPLISHMENTS, PROGRESS AND ACHTEVINEDNTS

A. SUMMARY - Throughout the reporting period, the LIEMPTY Project contimed
to provide the vast majority of the operational photographs and surveillance
reports used by the Station in its planning and operations against the ~
LIMERICK installation and personnel, The LIEMPTY coverage has proved to de
& particularly reliable tool for: following the daily comings and goings
of the LIMERICK personnel; providing leads to and confirming the identi-
fications: of new LIMERICK staffers and also visitors to the LINERICK installa-
tion; providing leads to the relative rank and the specific intellicence
service affiliation of various LIMSRICK officers; keeping tha Station abreast
of construction and physical changes in the LIMERICK physical plant; and

“" "~"" providing a reliable check on various Station and LNERGO access agents.
Turing the quarter under review, Project LIEMPTY basehouses provided 5,003

February 1966 remains in effect. During the period under review, the
emergency contact arrangements pertinent to LIEMPTYs -4, -6, -9, -13

and -15 were reviewed by GERENDE and the respective agents. The

both the JMPIGER prosram and the Station's recruitment /penstration
program. This apparat provided 282 operational photographs, while the
personnel attached to the LIENTRAP unit alco regulerly serviced 21 postal
accomnodation addresses used by Mexico City Station, Headquarters and
other Fleld Stations. In daly, the LIENPRAP unit was repainted and

completely overhauled.

C. LIMITED - During this quarter, the LIMITED basenouse provided 1,215
frames (7 reels) of operational film as well as daily physical surveil-
lance reports covering the arrival aud departure of all LIMERICK personnel,
at the front gate of that {notallation during the evening and weekend
hours. In addition, LIEMPTY-6, the LIMITED basehouse keeper, served

as the radio dispatcher for munerous LIEMERACE surveillance operations.

D. LILYRIC - During thia periou, the LIGYRIC basehouse provided a record
3,301 frames (99 reels) of operational photozraphs covering the same
area and targets as noted in the LIMITED section above, put during the

be @ most reliable tool for: following the dsily movements of LIMERICK
personnel; providing leads to, and confirming the identities of LIMERICK
staffers and their visitors; verifying or providinz leads to the relative
rank and specific intelligence service connection of various LIMERICK
officers; keeping the Station abreast of construction changea in tha LIMERICK
physical plantrproviding a check on reports of Station and ODENVY access
agents. During the three month period under review, Project LIEMPTY's
basehouses yrovided 3,957 frames of operational photographs (146 rolls)
as well as 650 pages of fixed surveillance reports covering this target.

>) LIENTRAP - Throughout this period, the LIENTRAP mobile unit was

targetted against leaders and meeting-sitea of the local Commnist parties

as well as other targets of opportunity, specifically the leaders of the

strike group at the National University. LIENTRAP provided up-to-date

photographs of numerous Communist officials, which are of value to both

the JMPIGER program aml the Station's recruitment/penetration program.

This unit provided 330 operational photographs, while the personnel attached

to this unit also regularly serviced 21 postal accormodation addresses used ,
by Mexico City Station, Headquarters, and other field Stations.

ec) LIMITED - During this period, the LIMITED basehouse provided 1,147
frames (45 rolls) of operational film and daily observation reports covering
the arrival and departure of LIMERICK personnel and visitors at the front
gate of that installation during the afternoon and rush-hours, In

addition, LIEMPTY-6, the LIMITED basehouse keeper, served as the radio
dispatcher for several LIEMBRACE surveillance operations.

‘d) LILiRIc - Diring this perici, the LITYRIC basehouse provided 1,660
frames (56 rolis) of operational photozraphs, covering the same ares and
targets noted in the LIMITED section, but during the morning and early
afternoon hours. In addition, the LILYRIC personnel prepared a detailed
report on the datly comings and goings of each LIMERICK staffer and
contributed the majority of this Project's physical surveillance reports.

a) LICALLA - Throughout this period, the LICALLA basehouse provided
photographic coverage of the garden and patio area of the LIMERICK
installation, an area where many of the officers, their families and
visitors congregate. In providing this coverage, LICALLA produced 1160
individual photographs as well as regular, daily reports on the salient
activities “da this, area.

«f) LYEMPry-h.- aL the above “eited operational film (160 rolls, 4,297

program).

.@- Raymond H. GERENDE - During the reporting pertod, OERENDE served

as the full-time LIEMPTY P/A, operating aa the cutout to the LIMITED,

LILYRIC, and LICALLA basehouses and bearing the agent handling responsibility
.for the related personnel as well as handling the operators of the LIENTRAP
mobile unit, LIEMPTY-4, and LIEMPTY-19, a Station asset (translator) carried
under Project LIFEAT, Gerende's overall assignment involved at least twelve
elandestine agent meetinga each week, in addition to his meetings with the
LIEMPTY Project casa officer, It should be noted that GERENDE also made
mmearous and essential contributions to the sensitive AMROD deception

operation,

CHANGES AND PLANNING

As noted in paragraph 5 of reference A, Station is in the process of
increasing the hours of both the photographic and physical surveillance
coverage provided by the LILYRIC operations during the week-days. At
present, the LILYRIC personnel are providing coverage from early morning
to late aNernnon, while LIMITED {as providing week-end coverage. After
the LILYRICs have woved into the new LIMCUSINE building, it is anticipated
that they will be able to provide complete dawn to dusk coverage, the

g) Raymond H. GESENDE - Airing the reporting pertod, GERENDE served
as the full-time LIECTY F/A, operating as the cutout te the LIMITED,
LILYRIC, and TICALLA basehouses and bearing the asent hanitlinz responsibility
for the operators of the LIEMTRAP mobile unit as well as. LIEMPTY-4 and

GERENDE also made minerous ani essential contributions to the sensitive

the PBRUMEN surveillance of one of the AMHOD accomaoiation addresses,
undoubtedly saved this sensitive deception operation from exposure by the

opposition.

SECURITY AND PROBLEMS

’ Other than the attenpted PBRUMEN surveillance of the AMROD accommodation
address noted above (which was neutralized by GERENDS’s alertness), there
have been no known incidents which adversely affected the security of the
LIEMPTY project or the related agent pernonnel. ‘hile several minor ad-
ministrative problems arose, all such matters were resolved locally.

a) One major operational change is planned for the ensuin; period,
Upon completion of the new LIMOUSINE structure (se HMMA-25352, dated 10
February 1965) » the Station will move the present LIGLYRIC basehouse
personnel (LIFMPTYs 13, 1s, 26 and 27) into that edifice rather than the
LIMITED (LIEMPTYs 6 and 7) personnel as originally planned. Ancillery
modifications are: 1) To increase the hours of both the photographic and
physical surveillance coverage provided by the LILYRIC operators (dawn to
dusk) during the week days and 2) have LIMITED provide photographie and
physical surveillance coverege on week-ends only, while remaining on datly
stand-by for raiio-dispatching assignments. These changes were dictated by
the following considerations:

1) The new LIMOUSINE building will offer a much better vantage point
for both photosraphic and physical surveillance than does the present
complex which houses the LILYRIC and LIMITED bases, Therefore, the
Station feels that the personnel occupying this new base should be
those possessing the highest technical skilis and also those able to
provide the most thorough anil complete coverass, Since the LIMITED hase
now has only one trained operstor while the LILYRIC basehouae has three,

the LILYRIC group is indicated.

2) Because it appears that the coverage of the LIERICK installation
will be a lonz-ranze and continuing requirement, the Station desires
to staff the new hase with personnel of lon;-rarge potential. Since
LIFAPTY-G is now almost 60 years old, it is obvious that he does not
possess this potential; however, the TLILYRIC agent complex happlly
combines experienced personnel with youthful agents,

3) Finally, the sccial and financial status of the LILYRIC peraonnel is
much more compatible amd consistent with the environment of the new
building than is that of the LIMITED family. .

While it ia anticipated that these modifications and changes will initially
cause varicus administrative and operational probleas, it is believed that
all such adjustments can be handled locally.

bv) The requisite copies of the PN? Part IT pertinent to LIELPTY-26
were forwarded te Ueaaquarters with MMy-2750%, dated 3 Movember TOKS alone
with a request for a full Operational Approval for Sibject for use as a eut-oul
to the LILYRIC basehouse. LIE@TY-27 was granted a Provisional Cperational
Approval on 26 January 1966 for use as a part-time basehouse keeper/operator
at the LILYRIC installation, .

Throughout the reporting pertod, Profect LIIMPZY contirie! tu proince the
maforits of the operational photorrapia used in Chation Moxico City's KUD CR
operations against the LIMERICK trruet. This eoverare haa provel to be a relinbla

a) LIENTRAP - Throughout the reporting period, the LIETNAP mobile photo-
graphic unit was targeted extensively ozeinst the leaders and {natallations
of the Partido Comuntsta Mexicano, the Partido Popular Goctalista, ent
other exile or visiting comminict leadera, In mid-April 1965, the
LIENTRAP unit provided an up-to-date photograph of FoLIME-1 which was
passed to a visiting KUBARK staffer for hie use in the recruitment attempt
of ESLIME-1, Hot only did this photograph serve as a means of tdentifying
the target for the recruiter, but also served ap bona fides for the
recruiter during the succesoful recrultnent of thia commnist/exile
guerrilla, (See referones C. for detaila.) Overall, the LIENTRAP urit
produced 49 roils of 35 mm film which will be or have been used in support
of planned recruitment attompts, end Ln peoviding Identificatiors, locations

or contacts of varlous targota of Interest.

b) LICALLA - During the period under review, the LICALLA installation pro-
vided photographic cavurage of the #arden aml patio erea of tha LIMERICK
installation, where many of tha personnel consregate. In this effort,
LIEDTY-9, the LICALLA basehouse keever providel 52 rolls of 35r7 still
photographs which were mast us ful to the Station tn deternining or con-
firming the intelligence service affiltation of various LIMERICK stalfers
by their constant nssocintion and conversations with other known {rtelli-
genca officers. In adtition, LIGALLA provided special physical surveillance
reports on all deliveries mite to the LIMERICK installation, the prasence of
suspoct aulio techniclans, and the changan in the ontterna of activity of

various LIMERICK personnel. On 23 Maren, Dedley Fy GHAGTER, KURIO? cpectalist

LIMERICK intelligence officers or thetr contacts, Yecause of the protective
socurity provided to the LIMERICK instalation by local. "Servicen” it vould

MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Logiatica |

Mr, Edward Deaisoa

ATTENTION;
SUBJECT: LIEMPTY, Los USINE
REFERENCE: Mexi 2159 ;

1. In conversation with the Headquarters officer concerned
with LIEMPTY LIMOUSINE affairs, this Cifice waa apprised of the
fact thst the proposed transaction, outliaed ia rel: eenee cable, would
be executcd without recourse to advice on the legal aapecta of the
sale under Mexican law and with no intennoa to make LIMOUSINE's
commitment to this Agency legally binding. [tle further intended _
that LIMOUSINE's "promissory notes" be uasecured, :

2. Should the proposed transaction be carricd out ia this
manner, this Agency would be unable to caforce LIMOUSINE's
promise to pay his debt, and would have xo legally cognizable inetrue
ment to pregent to an executor of his estate should he dle before
meeting his obligations to usa. In additian, eur right to continued
poseesaion of the apartment would be tenums at deat,

3. Thus itis planned to convey real cataie apyraised at
$14,443 in exchange for $7,200 and a collection of unenforceable,
uneccured promises. It is hard to believe that in this case, operas
tonal security precludes closer protection of Aguacy assets,

“1 "It would appear from paragraphs 2a and ae ot referoacg yet
KUDESK and KUTUBE Ops have not been completely informet-of the back-
ground of the LIEMPTY Project and its agent-requirements, At the time
HMMA-14093 (Request for Renewal af Project LIEMPTY) was written, it
was assumed that the Mexico Desk and KUTUBE/D could answer any additional
questions, based on reports and dispatches not normally available to the
senior staifs, which might be raised during the renewal process,

2. In answer to paragraph 2a, Oliver G, SCANTLING first contacted
Inez PARADA de Moreno in early. 1957 to fulfill a KUTUBE/D requirement,
He visiced her as an architect twerested in viewing the LIMERICK -instalation
from the building where she lives, He was socially acquainted with her brother,
a Catholic Priest, and knew the tamily to be unquestionably anti-Communist,
However, it would be imprudent on the Station's and SCANTLING’s part to
assume that PARADA does not at least suspect that some anti- LIMERICK
intelligence service Is involved, PARADA suggested during SCANTLING's
initial visic that he couid return at sny time for further observations, This
was reported by SCANTLING on 21 March 1957 and it does not seem appropriate
to query him again on the pretext for his recent visits.

3. While HMMA-14093 correctly referred to LIMITED, LILYRIC and

’ LICALLA as "photographic basehouses, " the Station would like te emphasize
that photographic coverage is oaly one of their functions (please see HIMMA-12095,
4 February 1959). LIMITED is used as a radio dispatch base for astomobile
surveillance teams in addition to physical surveillance of persons entering

the front gate, Their photography is negligible compared to their other duties.
The LILYRIC base performs the best photography ot persons visiting the front
gate, perhaps because the vantage point for taking the victures is from the
second floor and above the street trattic which partially blocks LIMITED
photographs, LLILYRIC also does individual reports on LIMERICK personnel
entering and leaving the main gate, . LICALLA is used almost exclusively to
identify LIMERICK officials and to support KUTUBE/D requirements in
connection with the LIMESA/LIMUST Project. As an indication of the effect-
iveness of LICALLA photographic coverage, the Mexico Station has all rhe
LIMERICK officials identified, Before this base was activated more than two-
thirds of the LIMERICK officials were unidentified. ln order to support other
operations, it is considered essential that the Scation identify all LIMERICK
officials. In this respect, LICALLA aas provided most of the necessary infor-
mation. The retention of this base is also considered vital to.the security of
the LIMUST portion of the LIMESA Project,

4, The Station does not agree chat the color photography and moving
pictures are a luxury. Color slides were made for identification purposes
and have proved useful, particularly in identifying facial features and skin
coloring. The motion pictures were made at Headquarters sugrestion (Please
see HMMW-7687, 29 May 1959 and HMAMIW-8438, 26 January 1960),

5. -In conclusion, the Station would like to potnt out that the “photo-

graphic basehousces"™ represent an integral and significant part of the Station's
counterespionage effort against the LIMERICK installation, These bases do
not produce Foreign Intelligence and should not be considered tn such a light.

1, On 13 October 1959 it was learnedfcom source that the local ODENVY
chief got a priority cable from his Headquarters asking why data concerning the
Mexican apprehension of the (KUBARK) truck and photographer had not been re-
ported to the U. S, Ambassador locally. The statement was made that "such
matters as this should be immediately reported to the Ambassador,"

2. This cable resulted from the report the ODENVY office sent in on

the incident from the knowledge they had - as reported in reference.
i

3, The local ODENVY chief replied to his: Headquarters that he did not

agree that matters concerning KUBARK operations should be reported by ODENVY

to the Ambassador,

4. Source stated that the cable waa obviously a reat of the KUBARK/
ODENVY headquarters "ill feeling" which presently exists and which source
believes is primarily (and principally) attributable to the article in TRUE magacsing

of September 1959,
5, Source is LIMEW,

1, At lilUhrs., 20 September 1959, whilc on an operational assignment,
LIEMPTY~-10 and the LIENTRAP vehicle were temporarily detained by the Servicio

Mexico (Mexican Secret Service), LIEMPTY-10 was hold under

Secreto de
e hia release was obtained, Ther

unofficial custody for approximately 20 hours befor
_followa below an accountof the more important details portaining to this incident,

2. LIEMPTY-10 was inatructed on 17 September to case the area surrounding
the Theatre Iris, located at Donceles 36, preliminary to undertaking a photographic

of all persons entering and leaving ‘the theatre between the hours ef

surveillance
0930 and 1200 hrs., 20 September. In this instance, the Station's target was a pro-
( The Station

Cuban rally sponsored by the Circulo de Estudios Mexicanos (CEM).
had received information that many of the leading Mexican and Central American
Communists would attend this rally and that this wag an oppertune time to cstablish
which ones did attend and to collect their photographs. The Station did not know that
the Mexican Secret Sucvice would also be covering thia meeting for the purpose of
preventing a Conununist-inspired demonstration, :

3, The Station was advised at 1720 hrs., 20 September. by Raymond H.
GERENDE (ps), the Principal Ayent who handles LIEMPYTY-t0, that L-10 was being
held by the Seeret Service, Immediately followin, this notification, Allen W. WARS
(ps) was requested to contact Philip K. TESSAROLO (pa) and request him to implement
procedures through a criminal lawyer to effect the release of L-10. TESSAROLO
reted and briefed at 2200 hours and immediately began atternpts to locate

However, as somctimes happens in an emergency
ft was not until the

was conti
a reliable criminal lawyer,
situation, his two most appropriate contacts were out of tewn,
following morning at 0700 hrs, that TESSAROLO located another reliable lawyer

who agreed to handle the case,

4, Since GERENDE was known to L-10 and since the Station could not be
sure-how much L-10 might ve forced to tell the Secret Service, GERENDE was
given the following instructions:

A, To disconnect immediately the LIFEAT/LIVERY lines in the base
where he and his wife ‘vere living and to move all equipment to another safe
location, It was believed appropriate to take this precaution even thourh L-10
did not knew the location of the LIVERY base, the telephone number of the
base, or even that CERENDE was living at a place other than his mother's
vesidence in another part of the city.

B, To collect and deposit with his Case Officer any compromising papers
presently in his possession.

C. To make a eccurity inspection of the outside photographic lab at his
mother's house.

D. Yo phone L-10's wife and inform her that procedures were underway
to obtain L-10's release and for her not to become upset and talkative.

EB, ‘fo suspend all operational contacts until L-10 waa released and the

extent of compromise was determined, ,

5. During the evening of 20 September the Station LIFEAT Case Officer
Was advised that GERENDE had been uireeted to disconnect the LIVERY lines
and lo transfer all BIFEAT equipment to a safe location, To further insure the
security of LIVERY, all LIVERY lines were pulled externally during the early
morning af <1 September, :

do, At approximately 1000 hra,, 21 September, LIMEW informed the Chief

of Station that a contact of his (LIMEW's) had just informed him that L-10 (true

name) and the LIENTRAP vehicle were being held by the Seeret Service, LIMEW
stated that if L-10 was one of KRUBARK's agents he would attempt to have his
contact in the Secret Service obtain his imumediate release, LIMEW was told
that L-10 was, in fact, a KUBARK apent and that the Station would very much
Appreciate his cfforts to effect hia release, A short while later LIMEW again
contactes the Chicf of Station and informed him that at would be necessary for
documented ODACID official personally to contact a Commandante fnu LIMON”
of the Sceret Service and that L-10 would then be released. According, to LIMEW,
L-10 had told the Secret Service that he was carrying out his operational photo-
graphic assignment on a contract basia for ODACID; therefore, an ODACID |
official would have to establish L-10's bona fides.

7 As the Station learned later, the Scerct Service agents were roughing up

it contained Communist propaganda,
the Glm were then discovered in the rear of LIENTRAP,
L-10 was accused orally by the police officers of being a Soviet agent and later of
being a leeal Communist agent, After beiny taken to Seeret Service Headquarters,
L-10 tolg LIMON, in private, about his association with ODACID and emphasized
that he certainly was nota Communist agent, LIMEW's source (possibly Com-
mandante LLMON), believing that there may be some truth in L-10's statement,
contacted LIMEW, Based in part on assumption and in part on fact, this is the
Station's opinion as to how ODENVY became involved in the case,

8. ‘Che Station, realizing that LIEMPTY-10 had not committed an illezal
act by taking photographs, decided that WARE should personally visit LIMON
and request L-10's release, WARE contacted LIMON and the sub-jcfe of the
Secret Service, Raul MENDIOLEA Cerecero, about 1230 hrs., 2) September,
identfied himself as an ODACiD official and told them that L-10 did from time
to time perform photographic assignments for ODACID, particularly in the
field of local Communist activities, WARE also told LIMON and MENDICLEA
that L-10 was never permitted to do any task which was illegal under Mexican
Jaw and that if he had done so it was certainly not under the auspices of ODACID,
but on his own volition. They implied that L-10 had not done anything illegal and
that all they wanted to be sure about was that L-10 was nat a Communist agent,
10 was irmimediately released and the LIENTRAP vehicle returned to him with all

equipment intact, including the five rolls of undeveloped film,

2. ‘While WARE was on his way to sec LIMON at the Secret Service Head-

quarters, thc Chief of Station was advised by the ODACID Security Office that

L-10 was’ deing detained oy the Secret Service, Phe Security Office was told that

WARE was presently investinating the matter and should be at the Secret Service
Headquarters at that time. By coincidence, WARE was talaing to MENDIOLEA
when the ODACID Security Oifice phoned to inform him that WARE waa taking care
of the riatter, It was learned later that MENDIOLEA is a brother-in-law of the
local invest.gator employed full time b, the ODACID Security Olfice, This was how
ODACID became involved in the incident. To the best of the Station's knowledge, th
ODACLD Security Officer has said nothing more about the incident and, at the time,
did not attach any particular sizniticance to itor seem especially concerned about

10, During his visit to Scerct Service Headquarters WARE discovered that
L-10 had not been booked or formally charved with an egal act and that neither
LIMON nor MENDIOLEA could recall L-10's name, L-10 was not placed in jail
during, the 26 hours he waa at Secrct Service Headquarters but, rather, was permuttdd
to remain in the Secret Service ayents' duty roum, No bribes were necessary to
obtain his release; however, per LIMEW's request, $500.00 pesos were given to
LIMEW to give to his source, LIMEW said that in addition to notifying him about
L-10's detention, the source was also responsible for all equipment and film being
-returned intact to L-10,

ll, TESSAROLO wae advised, as soon ay LIMZW became involved in the cas
that the criminal lawyer should not puraue the matter any further. ‘Two bottles of
scotch whiskey were given to the lawyer through TLSSAROLO for the few tasks he

had already performed,

12. After his release, L-10 reported that he was not interropated and that he
did not reveal any data about other operations he has worked on nor did he pive 'the
names of anybody connected with operational activitics. Based on the developments
in the case, the Station hae no reason to doubt the veracity af L-10'as statement,: L-
10 was reprimanded for hia use of statements to the Seeret Service about being —
employed by ODACID, He was told that the revelation of such employment was ta
be made only by the Station and that henceforth he is never to uge such a cover
story, L-10 was also reprimanded for hiu lack of judgment in remaining in an area
wheee there was a strony, concentration of police; it ia believed safe to assume that
‘L-10 will ncver make this same mistake ayain,

13, In retrospect, it is interesting to note that L-10's use of the ODACID
employrnent story 13 possibly responsible for his not being interrogated and thus
compromising other operationa and individuals, This case has pointed out to the
Station the desireability of having casual contacts in the Seerct Service and other
local police-type organizations so that the Station, rather than ODACID and ODENVY,
in the firat to learn of incidents of this tpe. Considering the multifarious activities,
handled by the Station, it must be assumed that the police will occasionally appre-
hend an agent and that the Station must be geared to handle such emergencies,

14. The Statien is allowing a one month's cooling off period for the LLSN-
TRAP vchicie and LIEMPTY-10, Vhe vehicle wil then be painted another standgrd
color and re-resistered in the State of Mexico, After these security precautions
are observed, the Station seea no reason why carcfully selected photographic sur-
vevlance operations should not continue wich L-10 as a wiser and more prudent
LLENTRAP operator.

ACCOUNT OF DEVELOPMENTS -- OLIVER G, SCANTLING SEGMENT

2, Agent Information - Oliver G, SCANTLING has continued to perform his
‘ assigned tasks in an outstanding manner. SCANTLING's poise, common sense,
education, ideology and native abil i ity for the pursuit of clandestine acti vit ies
make him one of the most valuable support,assets available to the Mexico City
Station. The fact that SCANTLING has full time overt occupation as Chief
Enginee r and Production Manager for a local manufacturing compan y adds to
his long-range potential as a KUBARK agent, Ontwo occasions during the past
stx months SCANTLING has indicated to his Case Officer that he would like to
resign from his overt position and devote full time to his KUBARK ope rational
duties; however, the Case Officer has discouraged him from doing this on the
basis that he has more long-range potential when his cover occupation is Logitimate,
Of course, SCANTLING would be more valuable if he could work full time fo r the
Station, but not sufficiently soto warrant his resiynation from his overt job (his
monthly salary in his overt job is in excess of $800.00 U. S.), The only
significant limitation that SCANTLING has evidenc ed to his present Case Officer
is his occasional delay in prepar ing written reports of investigatio ns and other
Matters requiring repor ts for the files, However, this limitation gradually is
being overcome and it is expected that SCANTLING's reports will continue to
be factual, comprehen sive and soon will be promptly submitted, os geav

3, Security Developments ~ SCANTLING is constantly under a conside: able
amount of exposure and pressure when fo Mowing up LIMESA leads obtained from
LIFEAT and the photogra phic bases, Since time is always of the essence when
using such perishable leads, SCANTLING frequently is directed to make approaches
ro individuals performing services for che LIME RICK target after routine, and
sometimes only cursory, investigation, Therefore, the possibility always exists
of his entanglement in an undesirable secu rity incident, This neces sarily

tis to,SCANTLING's credit that he has not yet become involved in an incident which
he: Stat ion feels has cempromised him and/or alerted the target of KUBARK's many
crational cf forts against them, The closest SCANTLING has come to being compro-
‘ised and to being identi fied as a PBPRIME agent stems directly from the LIPSTICK

ented by SCAN'SLING in his true name at the time that he was Icader ofthe team,

accurate drawing of the type door installed at LIMERICK, This drawing was
forwardd to Headquarters via HMMA -11926, 21 January 1959,

E, Casing Report on West German Embassy - During June, July and
August 1958, SCANTLING prepared a detailed casing report on the new
West Ger man Embassy, SCANTLING's engineering ability enables him to
pre pare accurate drawings and sketches from a minimum of data, Also,
his personality and gregarious manner permit him to visit the inside of such
establishments, with an appropriate cover story, and retain minute details
which later he commits to paper and emerges with a comprehen sive floor
plan and important construction data,

F, ‘LIMERICK Construction ~ SCANTLING's long asso ciation with th is
target from the casing standpoint provides the Stat ion with an unpar all eled
sou rce of in formation about LIMERICK construc tion activ ities, modifications
and reasons for same,’ AU of the LIMERICK cas ing reports on file in Head -
qua rters are the product of SCANTLING's unusual a bility and knowledge,
Consultations with Station Officers about LINMIE RICK construction have been
of benefit to the Stat tondiring this reporting period an they wili continue to
be of worthwhile importance,

G, Routine Investigations and Surve illances - Although the Station has
several assets capable of performing invesvigations and surv eil lances,
SCANTLING is still used in situations requiring the utmost in discretion and
clande stinicy, His activities in this comnection are too numerous to list
here; suffice it to state that he has contributed materially to the Station's
collection of operational in fcrmation through his investigative efforts,
SCANTLING's interview of Paul Frederick Kir schho ff (201-4 3645) of LCMAY-
FOWL interest is an example of SCANTLING's use on-investigations (see
HM MA-1 1749, 17 December 1958),

H. ESGEM-15 - SCANTLING served as the cutout with ESGEM-1 5 during
the latter's December 1958 trip to Mexico City, In this connection
SCANTLING is 4 support asset which is trustworthy and dependable,
SCANTLING never displays undue curiosity in operations such as the ESGEM-15
one; he accepts the minimum amount of information given and performs his
duties in a professional and sincere manner,

I, LIEMPTY/3 - SCANTLING handles the administ rative matters conn ected
with L/3, Doris M, KILLGO provides oper ational direction to L/3, During
this reporting period, <he Stat ion had hopes of SCANTLING taking over the
ope rational super visioa of L/3's.activities, However, after a four-month
trial period with both SCANTLING and KILLGO meeting with L/3, ic was
decided that it would be desirable for KILLGO to continue handling L/3. L/3's
unusual personality and intellect indicated that he could best be directed by
a PBPRIME citizen, Therefore, SCANTLING no longer attends KILLGO's
and L/3's operational meetings, although he does continue to handle L/3's
administrative problems,

“Mexico City-in Dece mber 1958 and January 1959, it was considered app ropriate
for SCANTLING to handle LIMITED, LICALLA and LIENTRAP, Although this
procedure defeats some compartmentation principles, it was the only manner
in which the Station could maintain efficiency with the three operations listed

above , SCANTLING has known.the agents involved with LIMITED, LICALLA
and LIENTRAP for several years, In fact, he was at one time the agent in

' charge of these three oper ations,

5. Operational Methods Evolved During the Period - The VIDALES operation
(see parag raph + (C) above) indicated to the > Stat ion the necess ity for thorough
briefings and discussions with the agent making an approach to a target, This can
hardly be described as a new operational method, but ic does serve to illustrate
the minimum efforts that should be followed, The forthcoming LINIMENT IV
Loperation whe rein SCANTLING must recruit the Jandlord of the ia rget's building
is offering SCANTLING and the Station the opportunity to prepare thorou ghly for
SCANTLING's recruit ment pitch, The excellent documentation prepared by
KURIOT and the story being created by SCANTLING and the Station should increase
the batting average on SCANTLING's cold approaches, (See HMMA ~113656, 22
October 1958, and HMMW-7038, 2L November 1958, for additional details on
this Subject),

In a general sense, one other conclusion can be made about any Station's
support appar atus - where tcchnical and photographic operations are poss ible,
the utility of the information obtained is enhanc cd consider ably by accurate,
comprehen sive and timely casing reporis, SCANLING, as previously mentioned,
is an excellent asset for this type of support,

6, Administration - SCANTLING's contract expires on 15 February 1959,
As of that date SCANTLING will have received an annual salary of $3, 600. 00 U. S,
for two years, The Station plans to raise his annual compensation to $4,000.09
U.S, No other significant administrative problems exist,

7. Outlook for Future Developm ment = Station plans call for the continued
ut lization of SCANTLING in the same manner as he is presently being used,
The Station will keep SCANTLING as an independ ent asset and, it is hoped, resist
the tempration to make him a principal agent in charge of numerous sub-agents, It
is believed that SCANTLING is the t ype of support asset that can be wo rthwh ile
to the Station for many years to come and that every effor: should be made to protect
his security and value to KUBA RK,

ACCOUNT OF DEVELOPMENTS ~- RAYMOND H, GERENDE SEGMENT.
8, Agent Intormation - Aside from the agent information given in HMMA- 11368
22 October 1953, the only significant development was GERENDE's December 1958
marriage to a U, S,. educated girl of Dutch citizenship, The$ 500,00 U, S, for the
purchase of two plene tickets as a wedd ing gift to GERENDE was designed to
impress GERENDE with the fact that KUB. ARK thinks highly of him as an individual
and chat KUBARK has a great interest in his intelligence career, GERENDE is at
the age and stage in life “whe re he is beginning to wonder just what the future holds
for him, In the near future, the Station will propose a salary raise for GERENDE

and request a new contract that provides for some type of retirement benefit s.-
perhaps similar to the Civil Service Retirement progam for KUBARK employees,

9. Security Developments - Again, the Information on this suhject was covered
adequately in IMMA STISC8- GERENDE was relieved of his LIFEAT/BGMORNING
and LIF EAT/ Cuban Exiles duties on 10 December 1958, This, of course, was
in line with recommendations contained in HMMA~11368 and represents a definite
security improvement, GERENDE ws told that LIFEAT/BGMORNING was being
terminated because it had not been productive of cnough significant information and
that LIFEAT/Cuban Exiles was being terminated because the occupants of the target
apartment had moved (Note: This was true where the Cubans are concerned.)
dditional secur ity improvements will be made when Simon D, CLACKETT returns
to Mexico and relieves GERENDE of respons ibility for the LIJERSEY surveillance

tcam,

10. Operational Success and Effectiveness - Briefly reviewed below are the -
separate oper ational activit ies which GERENDE managed during the period covered

A, LIMITED - This base functioned smoothly, securely and efficiently
dur ing the period July through December 1958, ‘The base operator, LIEMPT Y/
demonstrated his usual competence and devotion to duty, in addition to the
primary objective of taking photographs of individuals of interest, L/6 also
prepared detailed daily logs on the arrivals and departures of all target
personnel, weckly reports of workers activities at the LIME RICK instal lat ion,
per formed three one~man surve illances of Mexicans working at LIMERICK in
an effort co identify them by name and home address, and provided SCANTLING
with information on LIMERICK construction, During this six-month period,
LIEMPTY/6 took approx imately 800 photographs from the LIMITED base,

B. LILYRIC - This base is operated by LIFMPTYs /13 and 14, with LIEMPTL Y¥/
12 serving as a cutout between the base and GERENDE, LIE MPTY/14 does most
of the photogra phy and reporting for the base since LIEMPTY/13 has a regu lar
job and is not on the premises during-regular daytime working hours, L/14
dev otes approximately six hours (0800-1 400) each day to photography and the
remaining time is spent preparing reports, The Base personnel compile
individual logs on cach target personality indicating their arrivals and departures
from the LIME RICK installation (Note: These reports are filed in the
app ropriate Station 201 file and are available to Stat ion officers in analyzing a
target personality 's pattern of daily activity), LILYRIC also prepared a
weekly report on workers activities at the Club and reports the license plate
numbe rs of all vehicles dischar ging or picking up individuals at LIMERICK,
(Note: These license plate numbers are then checked our through LIV FS TOCK/2
for the owne rs names and addresses - in case of immediate or later operational
interest,) During GERENDE's recent absence from Mexico City, OUSLER met
directly with LIEMPTY/ 12, Dur ing this period appr oximatel y2,000 photographs
were taken from the LILYRIC base, .

C. LICALLA - While LILYRI C and LIMITED are excellent bases for
pio tographing individuals entering and leaving the LiME RICK instal Lat ton,
the LICALLA base is the Station's best source of photographs of LIMERICK

~ employees, LICALLA is so situated that photographs can be made of target

personne 1 in the garden area of LIME RICK, CIEMPTY/9 is the base operator
for LICALLA and in the Station's opinion performs his job in an outstanding
manner, As reported in HMMA -11368, LIEMPIY/9 is the brother of former
LIPST ICK/47 (the first LIPSTICK surveillance team: member arrested in
June 1958), No repercussions, or indications of any impending ones, have

> resulted in this family relationship, This, certainly, is the major security
problem faced by L/9 during this reporting period, L/9 and his family soon
will have to vacate the LICALLA base for the period of time required to remodel
it, The Station ts quite sure that L/9 does not know that his covert employer

wns the LICALLA‘base and the threc adjoining houses and every effort is

being made to preserve this secret from L/9, (See HMMA+~12032, 28 January
1959, fora more detatled explanation,) Of course, during the remodeling of
LICALLA there will not be any LICALLA reporting or photographs, In addition
to taking appro xtmatcly 2,500 photographs during this six-month period, the
LICALLA base also prepared weckly reports on LIMERICK garden activ ities,
These reports indicate which LIMERICK employees are seen together each day,

which vehicles different employees are accustomed to using, construction activithes

and other matters which appear of significance to L/9,

D. LIENTRAP - LIENTRAP continues to be a worthwhiic Station asset,
Approximately 1,400 clandestine photographs have been made of numerous
targets during this reporting period and LIENTRAP type activities will undoubraihy
remain one of the Station's best investigative asses, As explained in the Field
. ) Pro ject Outline, forwarded ro Head quarters on 8 Getober 1958, the Station is
of the opinion thar the LIENTRAP vehicle should be replaced as soon as possthie,
Nearly four months have elapsed without receiving Headquarters authority to
replace the vehicle, The security situation is even more acute now than at the
time of the request, LIEMPTYs 10 and 11 do an excellent job on LIENTRAP

ope rations,

E, LIJERSEY - This operation can be characterized as somewhat dormant
for the July - December 1958 period, Because of GERENDE's other important
activities, he did not have the time to train and work with the surveillance team,
Also, the Station considered that it would be stretching security just a bit too fa
to have GERENDE engaged in surveillance at the same time that he was handling
the photogra phic base hous es and performing monitoring chores for LIFEAT/
BGMORNING and LIF EAT/ Cuban Exiles, The expected arrival of Simon D,
CLACKETT in April and his relieving GERENDE of LJERSEY will enable

the Station to train, within a year, an efficient mobile surveillance team,

At present, LIEMPT Ys/15, 16 and 17 compose the LEERSEY team,

F, LIFEAT - Until 10 December 1958 GERENDE served as monitor
in the basc house containing LIF EAT/ BG MORNING and LLFEAT/Cuban
Exiles, In addition to living in the base house, GERENDE also transcr ibed
the majority of theBGMORNING and Cuban Exile tapes, He performed

these jobs satisfactofily even uiough his efficiency was handicapped by numerous
‘other duties, Relieving GERENDE of his LIFEAT duties enables him to devote
more time to his other operations with a corresponding increase in che securin

of all his activities,

HRSJECT s Development of Physical Surveillance Assets in Mexico

-
REFERENCE s WH/FI Memorandum of 14 October 1958

1, The subject of the recruitment of a physical surveillance team in
the United States for use in Mexico as well as other areas within WH has
long been a topic of discussion at Headquarters, While it is palpably ri-
diculous to consider the use of a surveillance team recruited and trained
4n the United States and based in Mexico, operationally in other areas in
Latin America, there is some merit, at least in theory, to the proposal in
2a of reference, Although one of the basic factors in the make-up of any
eurveillance team is that its menbers mist be indigenous to the area of op-
eration, 1t would be possible to recruit such a team as suggested in 2a and
use this team in Mexico, However, I believe this would be time-consuming and

very expensive for the following reasons:

a. Machine rune have already been made to spot candidates within
the Agency of the Mexican/American type for the LIMESA/LIMUST project, with

negative results,

b. In order to make it attractive to young men of the caliber
desired, we would have to offer some kind of a career with a starting salary
of somewhere between the GS 7? and GS 9 level, plus travel and allewances.
without attempting to even estimate this cost one can see that the figures for

a team of fifteen would run into six digits,

ec. It would take a minimum of three months for a recruiter to move
into the southwest area and spot, contact, develop and recruit a team of a

fifteen, c cieey
re
d. Once a team ef suitable candidates was recruited, it would
then teke a minimum of another three months to train these candidates in
basic trade craft and surveillance techniques,

6. Upon comletion of the training period, the candidates would
have to ce moved individually into the area of operztion to become familiar
with this area, the language, people, and atmosphere in general, etc. This
would take another three months minimum,

f. After completion of the area familiarization period, the team
would have to be assembled and put through various surveillance exercises as
a unit to check them out prior to actual operationg_

a2 Te

Ge Taere would be other problems confronting such a team from a
security standpoint, such as cover credentials, which would always pose a
threat to the operation. ?

2. To-sum up, it would appear that the proposal in 2a of reference:
is not feasible because of the time and expense involved plus the always
latent security hazard. -

3. lL agree with paragraph 2 b of reference. Not only should the
personnel of the surveillance team te recruited at the station, but as oute
lined in paragraph 3 it should be relatively easy to find suitable candidates.
For example it is proposed under the new LIEMPTY project (this consists of
the remainder of the non-blown LIPFSTICKs and the LIJERSEYs) to recruit a
physical surveillance team. Two of the station’s outstanding indigenous
agents, Scantling and Gerende, are under this project and both are capable
of spotting, developing, and recruiting agents.

4, I agree with paragraph 3b, c, and d, and believe that Headquarters
should make every effort to find an experienced end competent case officer
to fill Clower's slot as the outsides surveillance case officer,

MEMORANDUM FOR: CWH
SUBJECT: Development of Payoical Surveillance Assets in Mexico

_.. 1.:.On & October 1958 a meeting of reprerentatives of SR Division
and-CI Staff was held, attended by the undersigned, to discuss means for
building up physical surveillance assets in Mexico, The SR and CI
sentatives pointed out that their current and projected work on BOMORNING
and their cases requires a considerable strengthening of physical surveile
lance assets, and it was the consensus that these assets would be used
far into the future on Soviet targets. It was further agreed that since
the LIPSTICK operation has encountered difficulties “this year, new assets

should be sought. 1

2. Various approaches to the problen wero discussed, the most viable
of which were as follows:

a, Recruiting of teams or basic elements for teans dn the Mexican
colonies of the southwestern U, S,

b. Dispatch of a new case officer to Mexico with the sole and
specific duty of developing and running the new teams,

ec, A combination of a and by,

3. Initially, it is believad the dispatch of a naw case officer to
Mexico would be tho most successful and give the best immediate results,

for the following reasons:

Qe Headquarters and Station records contain the names of ounerous
clearet contacts or contacts who could be clearud and through whar
introductions could ba made tv persons suitable for surveillance work.
Hitherto these have not been fully exploited owing to the heavy workload
on Station personnel and the unimpaired functioning till recently of
the LIPSTICK group. Some of these contacts were felt out as recruiters
ard spottors in years past but the matter was never pushed since the
need was not so great as now,

b. <A now case officer is needed beacause the present Station staff
is still too busy to devote the amount of time nesded to build carefully

and train thoroughly the new assets.

c. The new assets will require the full time direction and
coordination of a case officer who has no other responsibilities, In
this connection, it would be advisable to try to select, train and
utilize at least twelve new agents as soon as possible.


e2-=

d. In brief, a replacement of the former physical surveillance
leader is indicated, but a more mature and competent case officer is

needed, =.
4. Plan a, recruitment in the U, S., should not ba dismissed from
consideration, It would take longer than the other plan but might be
beneficial in enabling the new agants to be trained in the U, S. ‘They
Would then have to spend time getting into Mexico and familiarize thenselves
with operations and operational clinate there. This plan, however, presente
& problem as to who ls to do the recruiting and training in the U. S.
SR Division has offered to be of whatever assistance they can, but there
is no indication thoy could do any better at this than WID.

Se. It may be of interest to you to know that the SR representatives
said the best work done anywhere in the world on tha BOMORNINO case, which
has wide international ramifications, was done. by LIKAYAK=~2 in Mexico,

1. On 16 December 1955 the daily check of property which this Station
may desire to use for operational purposea(LICJOL ran} showed that a
house adjacent to the LIMENICK target installation was vacant. LIPSTICK-l19
was contacted immediately to investigate the property. He repurted that
it was a one-story house(duplex) in very poor condition wich wus being
repaired by the owner for rental. He furtner reported that from the
maid's rooma on the roof a clear view of ths entire LIMERICK compound was:
possible and, if he had understood the LD@RICK lansuaze, he would have
been able to understand several conversations which vere going on between
LIMEXICK officers in the game area of the compound, LIPSTICK-19 also ree
ported that from the roof of this house it was a distance of only approxt-
mately Mfty feet to the LIMERICK building across tat roofs with no
obstructing partitions except for a small wall and saverai strands of

. barbed wire, all totalling about four or five feet nigh between the last
roof and the LIMERICK building.

2. Based upon this favorable report, reference A vas sent immediately
to Headquarters requesting authorization to rent the house. Two days
later referenca 3 was received granting approval to rent the house. Con-
sequently, LIPSTICK-2L (the only cleared married man available tc the
Station, with the exception of LIBEITY, wno would fit into the area) was
approached and requested to rent the house, This svsed a considerable
problem to LIPSTICK=21, since the house has only two cedrooms and he already
had two children, and at that very time his wife was in the hospital
diving birth to a third child. Purther, he had a very comfortable house
ts duplex waich he shared with «is brother-in-law at a pre-devalvation
rent) which he would never be able to again acquire after tnis operation
was terminatec. He did, however, agree to take the house and it was

apparent to all concerned that ‘nis decision was based upon loyalty to
this Station and.dedication to the fight azainst Cormunism. It is hoped
that this unselfian snd devoted act of LIPSTICK-21's will be mde a

matter of permanent record,

“3. The reason for LiPstICK-2 to move from very comfortable quarters

at less rent into cramped quarters at a higher renta). needed some explana-
tion for his friends and relatives. There is a very fine private school
approximately one block from this house which LIPSTICK-21 had often men-
tioned as the best in tha city for his children, and consequently he told
everyone that the reason for moving wag to be ag close as possible to this
school go that his cniliren could attend. It should be noted in tnais
respect that, in reality, LIYSTICK-21 had been sending his chilaren to

one of the best public schools in Mexico City at no cost, Unier the present
circumstances, he will have to pay tuition at the private school because
it is the only decent school in the area and it provides excellent cover
for his residence in the area. It 1s requested that Headquarters authorize
thi3a Station te assist LIPSTICK-21 in the payment of his children’s tuition
for the above stated reasong. Approximate cost of the tuition would be
$20.00 U.S. per child por month, or a total for LIPSTICK-21 of $10.00 US
per month, authorization is requested to assist LirsTICK-21 by payment

of $30,00 U.S. per month.

4e The house is ore of a series of one-story houses that extend fron
the LIMEAICK building to a four-story apartment building on the far
corner. The fronts of the houses are all directly on the sidewalk with
the doors opening onto a ono-step stoop. Thre backs of the houses and the
walls of the back patLos all abut the compound of the LIMERICK installa-
tion, The rear windows of the house face a patio which ends in a brick
wall, ‘his brick wall is not as hij;n as the roof of the house, anding
about: four feet below the level of the roof. ‘There are stairs mich
ascend from this patio to the roof where the maid's quartera are situated,
About halfway up these stairs one can turn and obtain an unrestricted
view of the LIMERICK compound. ilowever, tha maid's room offers toe best
operational possibilities since it provides concealment for the observer
and hig equipment, plus a more advantageous view. LIvSTICK-21 told his
maid that she would have to sleep out at a local pension since ne needed
her room for nis radio experiments. This is a plausible story sinca
LIPSTICK -21 is known to ve an enthusiastic radio amateur.

Se The maid's room nas a door that faces across the roofs in the direction
of the LIMERICK installation and one window wuich faces across the house
roof toward the street. A view of the LIMERICK compound is obtained by

an observer who is back in the room looking through the partly opened door,
Some better method of observation will be worked out which will eliminate
the security nazard of a door partially opened at all times of operation.

6, At present we plan to allow LIPSTICK-21 considerable time to get

wn settled securely into his new quarters before starting any operational
efforts. After this waiting period is over ana we feel that we can
Securely comence ope:‘ations, we plan on using the base for the following

efforts:

a. A supplementary photographic base. In tais connection tha
request for adiitional Exactas and spotting scopes previously made
‘| should be expedited. It ig anticipated that much operation informa.
tion will be develoszed by this photograghiec work showing the various
" associations between the people when they are at play in the ccepound
i waiich can never be determined from the LIPSTICK-LIMITED coverage,
4; Visiters who seldaa leave the compound do engage in social activity
within the compound and can be phctographed for possible identificae
tion by the AEDIPPSKS. Items wiich are losded into the automobiles
fer transportation to unknown points may be identified through this
coverage. Further, snould LIPSTICK/LINITED be terminated for any
reason, we would be able to continue some coverage from this bage.

~  - Be = Observation by LIPSTICK-21 of the builsings and the activities
in the compound will furnish valuable information on the daily living
habits of the residents and their guests,

Ce ‘The LIPSTICK/LIDOMINO base, presently being occupied by LINCH-
FIN, is about 75 yards away from the LIMSRICK target while LIPSTICK,’
LICALLA is only about fifty feet. This base may assist the Head-
quarters technicians, who periodically use the LIPSTICX/LIDOMIN
base, for reasons of proximity and the use of tneir equipment from
a different direction. The exact use of the LIFSTICN/LICALIA base
in this respect must be determined by the Headquarters technicians
who are familiar with tne equipment used,

d. Comersations in the LIMERICK compound are audible to someone
who is listening from the maid's room, Naturally street noises and
extraneous sounds interfere considerably witn tunis eavesdropping so
that the employment of some parabolic microphone ani racorder mst
“be used for optiman results.

e. Should future operations provide the crportunity to install a
transmitter micropnone(resonant cavity) in some iten carried into
the LINSRICK target, LiYSTICK/LICALLA would serve as an excellent
base since it has direct line of signt to the back of the LIMERICK

target.

a full report, togetner with available photograjhs, will be sent to

of this type of operation,

7. As stated in pars zraphs two and three above, LIPSTICK-21 hag undergone
corsiderable personal sacrifice to accommodate this Station in this opera-
tion. It has always been the practice to pay a base house operator &
starting salary of approximately $120.00 U.S, per moath, since the work

of operating a base hous is almost fuil-time. LIPSTICK-2cl now earns
